• Mouth-watering

  From the director of the amusing "The Story of Ricky" and the downright bleak "Her Vengeance" comes..."Erotic Ghost Story", a sensual reworking of George Miller's "The Witches of Eastwick". Yes, the film does rip "Witches" off and it does feature some very poor effects sequences (the transformations are like something from the 50's), but... If Asian women rock your boat, hop on board this erotic masterpiece. I didn't care for the story. I didn't care for the bumbling, hideously irritating character known as "Scholar". All I cared for was seeing more full-frontal nudity of the achingly beautiful creatures who prance across the screen in various states of undress. There is a plethora of mouth-watering images of breasts, vaginal lips, firm bottoms, tongues, sisters engaged in lesbian loving, masturbation, wind-swept ponds of flower petals, carefree nymphs dancing through fields of swaying grass, you name it, this flick's got it... As long as you're not expecting anything more than pure female flesh. It's better than the self-conscious "Sex and Zen" and it leaves its own sequels in the dust. The music, like its cast, is hypnotic, too.

• Sleazy and titillating HK III Cat classic.

  "Erotic Ghost Story" revolves around three lustful fairies(played by Amy Yip, So Man and Hitomi Kudô)who have attained human form.Upon helping a hapless scholar,the trio begin to have lustful thoughts about him.This soon leads to many erotic scenes and the eventual discovery that he is a dangerous demon.The film is loosely based upon a series of ghost stories written by Pu Songling during the Qing Dynasty.It provides lots of nudity and some very erotic moments.The sisters are all gorgeous to look at and incredibly sexy."Erotic Ghost Story" was successful enough to spawn two sequels,though neither is as good as the original.Hong Kong film superstar Anthony Wong stars in the second as a sex demon,and the third moves the story in an entirely new direction.Go through hell to watch it.8 out of 10.

  I hope I can urge people to see this movie. It's not a porno movie but it does boast hot simulated sex with gorgeous women. If you have seen this movie on the new DVD or the old video then do yourself a favor see ERotic Ghost Story 2! Part two is quite a show. It has better hotter sex and Outrageous action scenes that only Hong Kong films can offer. The Photography is great and the kinkiness is right on. Eye candy gone mad.

• Refreshing, original film

  If you can find this one, check it out; it's pure gold. Amazing stunts, swordfights, and musical numbers all rolled together into an "Evil Dead" setting. Not like any American film you've ever seen. Pure entertainment.

• As crazy as only a Cat III can be.

  Erotic Ghost Story is an hour and a half of smutty Hong Kong craziness that more than delivers what most viewers will be after, namely copious amounts of nudity from its three sexy stars, beautiful So Man, delectable Hitomi Kudô, and the always breastabulous Amy Yip. Happy to shed their clothes at every opportunity, these three actresses play ancient animal spirits who are in the final days of becoming human, but who find their transformation threatened when they all fall for the same man, a scholar named Wu Ming (Lap-Man Sinn), who just happens to be a wicked demon in disguise. First to get jiggy with lucky Wu Ming is well-endowed Cat III legend Amy Yip, who works up a serious sweat satisfying the scholar. Yip is closely followed by Hitomi Kudô, who is guaranteed to send blood pressures sky high by daring to bare the most, giving viewers an eyeful of her nether regions before getting to work; So Man goes last and shows that, even though she might be the oldest, she's still got what it takes. And when the three women learn that they have all slept with Wu Ming, what do they do? They have a foursome with the fellow, of course. Phew! The loving ends, however, when the women witness Wu Ming in his true form, as Wu-Tung, a hideous three-faced monster with huge claws who tortures a hapless young woman, tearing the skin off her face (the hilarious special effects have to be seen to be believed). Crafting a voodoo doll, the trio take revenge on the fiend, eventually seeking help from a Taoist priest who causes the demon to explode. All of this silly horror is a whole lot of fun, as is the occasional spot of daft comedy from the girls' nosy neighbours Mr and Mrs Wang. Followed by two sequels, both of which sound just as sexy and just as bonkers. Count me in! 7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.
