Plot summary

Yunpeng and his servant stay at a country inn one dark evening to escape potential robbers and ghosts. But Yunpeng chances into something far more dangerous! He accidentally happens upon the comely Anu naked in bed, and to make up for his rudeness he has to marry her. Because of her beauty, the request is not too difficult to fulfill...until she is introduced to his aunts and uncles, who notice her ghastly green glow and deduce that she's a spirit from the netherworld. But there's something even darker about her appearance, and it may be revenge on his in-laws.

Fun little film

The movie follows the story of a young man who marries a beautiful woman after accidentally seeing her fully nude. However, he soon discovers that his bride might be the ghost of a woman who was raped and killed by his relative 20 years ago.. This movie is a delightful and nostalgic throwback to the classic haunted house tales of yesteryear. It's a charming film that manages to balance the right amount of spookiness with heartwarming moments, making it a perfect watch for those who enjoy a good old-fashioned scare without the gore and jump scares often found in modern horror movies. While there are a couple of scenes with brief nudity, they are tastefully done and serve the story rather than being gratuitous.

Old-fashioned ghost story

THE BRIDE FROM HELL (1972, original title Gui xin niang) is a second-tier Shaw Brothers horror film with no big stars, made before the genre really got going in the late 1970s with the likes of the full-blooded BLACK MAGIC films. This one plays out as more of a genteel, old-fashioned ghost story with a few supernatural bits added to the mix. The story sees a traveller taking refuge at a secluded house, where he accidentally views his hostess naked in bed. To spare her further shame, he marries her, but his extended family become convinced that she's possessed by the spirit of an evil ghost...

As a Shaw film this has plenty going for it, not least the usual exemplary sets and costumes. The ghost FX are quite crude even by '70s standards but I still got a kick out of them. But it's the writing where this falls down a bit. A lot of it feels very repetitive and padded out so that in the end I was feeling a little bored by the whole experience. The whole subplot with the overweight servant who's scared that his own wife is a spirit is also overdone and tiresome. The ending is very abrupt and anticlimactic. It's just not a film I could fall in love with despite being a big fan of the genre, so it gets 6/10 for effort.
