This minor effort from Kuei Chi Hung bears a title that's an apt description of its contents. Built around 45 minutes of an abandoned production the director began working on in late '74, this 'interlude' is stretched to feature length via the anthology format.
The second story is the best, while the third -- the aborted feature -- is the most polished of the trilogy. Sporadically effective, the stories deal with two men spending the night in a spooky mansion; a young man's dead mother returns from the grave; and a period tale about a horny young scholar and his servant encountering ghouls on his way to take an imperial exam.
Even for Shaw fans and those of the underrated director, this lower tier terror tale is like your favorite Chinese food -- it leaves you wanting more not long after you've digested it.

This is brought to you by the Carjackers from The Chop Shop.
