Sticky rice draws out vampire venom, paper talismans inscribed with blood-ink spells can immobilize the creatures, and holding one's breath renders you invisible to these sightless predators.

#HappyBirthday to Hong Kong actor #ChowYunFat! I mostly know him from John Woo's Hard Boiled, The Killer and the Better Tomorrow films so I made these Vaporwave pieces to honor him.
Happy Birthday Chow!

"During the Qing dynasty, the practice of “autumn executions” concentrated the killing of convicts into one brief annual period, creating a logistical nightmare: corpses often had to be transported vast distances for burial in their ancestral homes." https://lttr.ai/AqIrl

Jackie Chan’s best film in years?
The Shadow’s Edge plays like Heat with full contact martial arts. Chan and Tony Leung Ka Fai deliver serious showdowns, while Zhang Zifeng signals the next generation.

Mr. Vampire didn't just create a film—it codified an entire jiangshi subgenre for the next decade.

Vital Signs (送院途中)
de Vincci Cheuk (卓韻芝)
Drame, 2025, 97 mn, VOSTFR
Film de clôture du Festival du film Hongkongais de Paris.
« Dans l’un de ses plus beaux rôles dramatiques, Louis Koo incarne un ambulancier chevronné qui ne souhaite qu’exercer son métier à l’écart des ingérences de sa hiérarchie. Alors qu’il envisage d’émigrer avec sa fille, il se heurte à son nouveau coéquipier, un jeune ambitieux déterminé à gravir rapidement les échelons de la bureaucratie. »
« Avec cette comédie dramatique, la réalisatrice Vincci Cheuk signe une mise en scène d’une grande maturité, explorant la culture de la fonction publique hongkongaise et la récente vague d’émigration. À la fois tendre et lucide, le film se présente comme une lettre d’amour à la ville et à ses habitants — en particulier à ceux qui ont choisi d’y rester. »

I was going to put together a list of all the cinema chains in HK, because it's difficult to remember them all when you are hunting for that weird little movie or that one location that may still be showing a movie you missed when everyone was still showing it.
But now it's easy to remember, because every chain except three closed up in the last couple of months. There is no Chinachem, no Golden Harvest, no CineArt, no Mandarin Motion Pictures, there's only (chains with more than one location):
MCL Cinemas
mclcinema.com/index.aspx?visLa…
Yes, they are named in the plural and the URL is in the singular. It was always confusing.
Broadway Circuit
cinema.com.hk/en
Emperor Cinemas
emperorcinemas.com/
There is no way to link to an English-speaking page, you have to go there and then switch to English.
EDIT: No, I'm wrong, CineArt is still running four cinemas.

Time Still Turns the Page (年少日記)
de Nick Cheuk (卓亦謙)

Nick Cheuk a écrit le scénario en réaction à la vague de suicides d’étudiants survenue à Hong Kong en 2015, en s’inspirant largement du vécu tragique d’un ami proche – également ami de l’acteur Siuyea Lo – qui mit fin à ses jours. »

Tuyệt chiêu "Đoạt mệnh chân cây kéo" trong phim Châu Tinh Trì thực sự tồn tại! 🎬🥋
Kỹ thuật võ thuật tưởng như chỉ để gây cười trên màn ảnh hóa ra lại là một đòn công kích thực sự đáng sợ. Điều thú vị là nó còn giống với những môn võ truyền thống Việt Nam.
Điện ảnh Hong Kong không chỉ mang lại tiếng cười mà còn ẩn chứa những kỹ thuật võ thuật đầy bất ngờ!

"Taoist priests would bind corpses to flexible bamboo poles, and when two men carried these poles on their shoulders, the natural flex and bounce of the bamboo made the bodies appear to “hop” in unison as the procession moved through the countryside." https://lttr.ai/Akbg6

While Mr. Vampire essentially invented the cinematic jiangshi, the film's visual inspiration springs from a genuinely haunting historical practice: corpse herding.

"Little Red Sweet", Chinese "紅豆" ("Red Beans") is one of those typical slow slice-of-life HK movies with a bit of 80s nostalgia, a bit of family tragedy, a bit of hard-working spirit, stubborn old people, and dealing with a changing city.
Objectively nothing special as a whole, but the acting, cinematography, sound design and soundtrack are always outstanding and personally I love all of these films.
“In a major move set to electrify action film aficionados, Shout! Studios has nabbed worldwide rights (excluding select Asian territories) to the coveted Golden Princess movie library, a treasure trove of 156 Hong Kong cinema classics that’s been MIA from Western markets for decades.” 📽️ 🇭🇰 🎞️ #ShoutStudios #HongKong #HongKongCinema #CineMastodon #GoldenPrincessFilms

I've finally updated my #HuiBrothers collection from abysmal Universe #DVD to #Bluray. Sad that there is no usable German (horrible dubbing and insufficient subtitles) and no #Eureka / #88Films version (yet?) so us Europeans must use a codefree player ...

"There were two women in Zhenbao's life: one he called his white rose, the other his red rose. One was a spotless wife, the other a passionate mistress."
Stunning but extremely lo-res still of #JoanChen as "Red Rose" in #StanleyKwan's film RED ROSE WHITE ROSE (1994), based on the novella of the same name by #EileenChang. Exquisite cinematography by #ChristopherDoyle. Hope to see a better quality print one day.
A gorgeous still from ROUGE (1987) dir. by #StanleyKwan. A stunning, achingly bittersweet romantic ghost story.

[Forgive me in advance]
The other day I had the most detailed dream about Jackie Chan (although I addressed him by his Vietnamese name, Thành Long).
We were in a car together and he asked me, very seriously, why Michelle Yeo was having such a renaissance and getting such great parts and winning all these awards and he was mostly forgotten about?
I advised him to make a film like Jacques Tati's “Playtime”, a big arty visual comedy purely on sound stage, with less emphasis on dialogue.
At that point I woke up, leaving me with the question: would Jackie Chan know who Jacques Tati was? Would he be a big admirer or draw a blank?

"Raining in the Mountain" (1979, Taiwan/Hong Kong), written and directed by King Hu, is coming to my local theatre The Cinematheque this weekend! Set in a secluded Ming Dynasty monastery where plans to steal a secret Buddhist scripture and name the abbot's successor are at play, and of course contested by means of martial arts, this one heavily influenced Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger. I can't wait to see it on the big screen. #movies #cinema #HongKongCinema #KungFuFlicks #AsianMastodon #Vancouver
