Vampires
have infested a meatpacking plant. The special Monster Police Squad
must eradicate them. However, when they botch the job, their division
loses face with the police commissioner. They are regulated to menial
jobs until the vampires invade the county hospital. Specifically, the
storyline deals a police station plagued by a haunted past dating back
to the Japanese occupation. A vampire, plus a few ghosts and demons
return to the station and the surrounding vicinity to wreck mayhem.
A handful of cops and their female superior attempt to bring order to
the chaos.
The sequel [written by future art-house director Wong Kar-Wai] is the
best of the two, in fact it's generally considered one the better HK
horror comedies (in league with SPOOKY
SPOOKY, WE'RE GOING TO EAT YOU, OPERATION
PINK SQUADet al) It's nonstop action, even before the
credits roll. And the ending is... well, yes... unforgettable. The hero
kills the vampire/creature by urinating into a pool, thus completing
an electrical circuit and frying the monster. The hero's buddy laments
his friend's unfortunate [yet noble] death by saying: "I'll think
of him every time I piss."
