A scholar falls in love with a beautiful girl, who may or may not be a ghost.
Brigitte Lin reteamed with director Sung Tsun-Shou for this costume romance that draws from Chinese folk tales. Lin plays amiable ghost Su-Su, who nevertheless is cursed by a dark evil to tempt hapless men to their dooms. Proving impervious to Su-Su’s seductive magic, chaste scholar endeavors to save her by acquiring the enchanted mirror imprisoning her soul. Elements of horror and fantasy make this an entertaining melodrama, but it’s Lin’s fresh innocence and intoxicating beauty that linger. [hkiff]
