Vampire vs. Vampire

Vampire vs. Vampire is a 1989 Hong Kong action comedy with horror elements, directed by Lam Ching-Ying, who also stars as the One-Eyebrow Priest. The character belongs to the taoist exorcist tradition Lam had already established in his earlier films. Here the priest lives with two young disciples and a small, mischievous Chinese vampire that obeys him, and the group makes its living by ridding nearby villages of restless spirits and other supernatural pests.

Their routine is disrupted when a European vampire, a former Catholic priest taken over by evil long ago, appears in a neighbouring church with a dead countess and blood-drinking bats at his command. The priest's Chinese rituals prove ineffective against this foreign opponent, leaving him to find another way to protect the village.

The screenplay was written by Sze Mei-Yee, Sam Chi-Leung and Chan Ka-Cheong, with Chua Lam producing, and the cast includes Chin Siu-ho, David Lui, Billy Lau and Sandra Ng Kwan-Yue among 29 credited performers. The film runs 90 minutes. On IMDb it holds a 6.1 rating from 679 votes, while on TMDB it stands at 6.2 from 32 votes, indicating a modest but steady reputation among viewers of Hong Kong genre cinema.
