Crazy VHS-Era Hong Kong Horror Movies You Need To Watch

May 1, 2021 by Red Stewart

Marvelous Videos with some Hong Kong horror recommendations…

Japan, Korea, and Thailand aren’t the only Asian industries pumping out horror movies for Eastern and Western audiences to digest – enter China, and in particular Hong Kong, which enjoyed a boom period during the VHS era of the 80s and 90s.

Granted, Chinese horror tends to be more looney and outright crazy than your more spiritual western counterpart. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t entertaining! Thanks to the folks at Marvelous Videos, we have a list of recommendations should you wish to explore this facet of the horror genre. Check them out here…
