| Summary: |
A strange rain starts, although it is not the rainy season yet: Coca Cola is falling from the sky,
followed by a pilot - without a parachute! The Chinese Sam (Christopher Chan) and the monk (Lam Ching Ying) have parachutes, but they end up in the brambles.
And then there's also the slightly vampiric ancestor of Sam, whose corpse Sam just acquisited in London. Revived by the monk
and remote-controlled with a little bell, the little zombie (Peter Chan Lung) should actually hop home to China to finally find eternal peace... |

short review: Abstruse blend of Chinese vampire myth (the typical hopping vampire who can be banned through magic yellow papers pinned to his forehead) and an African bushmen confronted with modern technology. The main focus of this so-called comedy is on situations resulting from this culture clash. Very unique, unfortunately it isn't neither funny nor good.  |
