YesAsia Editorial Description
The Chinese Ghost Story trilogy has pioneered a new genre in Hong Kong cinema combining horror, romance action and costume. The trilogy that was brough to life by Ching Siu Tung and Tsui Hark, is loosely adapted from the classic Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio written by Pu Song Ling in the Qing Dynasty. For the big screen version the traditional ghost story was brilliantly transformed into fascinating visuals with new artistic directions and modern special effects.
Her portrayal of a charming female ghost won Joey Wang the reputation as "classical beauty". No less enchanting is late super idol Leslie Cheung who prior to this blockbuster never wore ancient Chinese costumes for a movie role. The tale revolves around tax-collector Ning Tsai Shen (Leslie Cheung) who trespasses a temple for a night but is awakened by the bewitching music played by the feminine and attractive Hsiao Tsing (Joey Wang). He is madly in love with her and doesn't notice that resident Taoist Monk Yin (Wo Ma) has repeatedly stopped her from murdering him...
With an ancient romance reenacted by the charismatic Leslie and Joey, and spectacular action performed by veteran actor Wo Ma, A Chinese Ghost Story became a box-office hit all over Asia soon after its release and is considered a classic nowadays.
Its sequel A Chinese Ghost Story 2 is just as acclaimed. Though this is an even looser adaptation of the Qing Dynasty text, the spookiness in Pu Song Ling's story is well preserved. Leslie Cheung, with his unparalleled charisma, continues to star as Ning Tsai Shen but Joey Wang becomes another female "ghost" named Windy. The cast is even stronger with the gorgeous Michelle Reis and top singer Jacky Cheung joining this second episode. The next year in 1991, Ching Siu Tung and Tsui Hark directed the third episode. Instead of Leslie Cheung, A Chinese Ghost Story 3 stars Tony Leung Chiu Wai who is no less captivating. Another uncanny romance between Tony Leung and Joey Wang begins to unfold...
The three films have been nominated and won numerous awards, especially in original scores, artistic direction and action choreography. A Chinese Ghost Story was awarded Best Art Direction, Best Original Film Score and Best Original Film Song at the Hong Kong Film Awards in 1987.
Now you can own all three films at once in the best quality ever! Digitally re-mastered with Dolby Digital 6.1 sound mix, the three Chinese Ghost Stories now come nicely in a box-set together with a 36-page full color booklet which contains the synopsis, still pictures and behind-the-scene photos. Interviews with the famous action choreographer Yuen Bun and the late lyricist and composer James Wong who penned the songs for the films are also included. Immerse yourself into the eerie but romantic world of the Chinese Ghost Stories today!
The Boxset has Leslie Cheung as Ning Tsai Shen Joey Wang as Hsiao Tsing on the front cover, while the back cover features Tony Leung and Joey Wang in A Chinese Ghost Story 3.

천녀유혼 1편
1987년 작품인 <천녀유혼>은 홍콩 SFX영화의 대가인 서극 감독이 제작에 참여하고 정소동 감독이 연출, 장국영과 왕조현이 주연한 귀신과 인간의 가슴 아픈 사랑이야기를 그리고 있는 로맨틱 판타지 작품이다. 영채신은 남루한 모습으로 수금을 하러 다니는데, 비를 맞아 장부가 물에 젖어 지워지는 바람에 수금은커녕, 당장 하루 숙박을 해결하기도 어려운 상황이 된다. 하는 수 없이 하룻 밤 묵을 곳을 찾던 영채신은 난약사라는 귀신이 나온다는 소문에 아무도 살지 않는 절을 찾아간다. 그곳에 있던 연적하라는 검객은 영채신에게 당장 이 절을 떠나라고 하지만 갈 곳 없는 영채신은 그의 경고를 무시한다.
그 곳에서 귀신 섭소천을 만나게 되고, 워낙 착하고 순수하고 욕심이 없는 영채신은 소천의 꾀임에 넘어가지 않고 오히려 그녀의 마음을 흔들어 놓게 된다.
영채신과 섭소천은 사랑에 빠지게 되지만 이들을 방해하는 섭소천의 계모인 나무귀신, 검객 연적하로 인해 이들의 사랑은 위태로워진다. 결국 영채신은 소천이 귀신이었음을 확인하고 소천을 떠나게 되지만, 곧 소천의 진실을 깨닫고 그녀를 환생시켜주기로 마음먹는데...
[천녀유혼 2편]
난약사로 향하던 영채신은 수배인물로 오인을 받고 관군에게 끌려가게 된다. 이 때 백발의 도사를 만난 영채신은 비밀스런 주술을 이용해 겨우 탈출하게 되지만 쫓아오는 관군들을 피해 도망치다 숲속에 숨어있는 청풍과 월지 자매를 만나 귀신에게 잡혀간 그녀들의 아버지를 구하러 가는길에 동참하게 된다.
아버지를 구하러 가는 도중에 갖가지 요괴를 만나지만 이때마다 이 셋은 힘을 합쳐 위기를 헤쳐나가고, 그러던 중 셋은 삼각관계에 빠진다. 하지만 이들은 그동안 함께해온 시간 동안의 정으로 이 난관을 슬기롭게 해결한다. 결국 두 자매, 청풍과 월지의 아버지가 잡혀 온곳을 찾게 된 이들은 스승의 도움을 받게된다.
[천녀유혼 3편]
천년묵은 세 요귀 수로, 노노, 흑산노요가 백가 백년동안 땅속에 갇혀있다가 세상에 나와 사람들을 위협한다. 노승 백운과 그의 제자 십방은 난약사라는 절을 지나가는데 거의 폐허가 된 절 안에 이상한 기운이 가득한 것을 발견한다.
이 절에는 귀신 소탁과 소척이 살고 있다. 백운과 십방은 요귀들을 잡으러 절에 들어가 물리치는데, 이때 십방은 소탁을 불쌍히 여겨 백운 몰래 도망치게 한다.
절에서 금불상을 발견한 십방은 이를 몰래 감추며 스승에게 이 사실을 숨기기 위해 백운을 절에 하루 더 머물게 한다. 절 속에서 살인죄로 숨어있는 연적하를 만나 백운은 그와 동행하게 된다. 드디어 다양한 캐릭터를 지닌 세 사람의 팀이 짜여지고 이들은 먼 길을 떠난다.

It is great to read the reviews but unless there are issues for Zones A,B,C (i.e. Zone Free) in which e.g. most 'older' titles in the USA and Britain are released , we won't be throwing our old DVD's away! Cheers! rfdunedin New Zealand |

What a Treasure
|
Most people probably already know what this trilogy is about, so I'm not going to give a review of the movies. Instead, I'll give a brief review of the technical aspects of this DVD boxset. This boxset is a real treasure if you're a fan of "A Chinese ghost story". The picture quality is significantly improved over the "Megastar DVD versions" which were released more than 10 years ago. I have a big screen tv, and believe me, the picture is crystal clear, almost as if these DVDs were officially produced by large Hollywood Studios like Sony, Warner Bros., Paramount, etc. The sound quality is also greatly improved. You WILL notice all of these improvements when you play them. I was hesitant at first to get this boxset since I already owned the MegaStar versions on DVD and also because of the fact that the MegaStar versions had poor picture and audio quality when viewed on large screen TVs. These three great wonderful films have finally been given the treatment that they deserved. The improvements are so astonishing that one can only wonder why these films weren't given a theatrical release in North America. |

Beautiful
|
I absolutely love this remastered series. Even the change of colours is for the better. For instance, the love scene in Part I originally was in full colour, but I feel that shading the scene in blue gives it a more mystical, exotic, and sensual feel. The music and sound is also much better than the previous versions. I love the lyrics of the love scene in Part I. The music during Joey Wong's bath scene is also appropriately (and sensually) placed. I only wished that the DVDs could have been packed with more extras. |

Impressive remastered
|
Wow, this collection is quite awesome.It even came with a booklet featuring all 3 A Chinese Ghost Story characters and behind the scene. But it would be better if the pages were much more thicker. But still the DVD's were a bestmanics. They have done such a great job on refixing the graphic and sounds. I was impressed by the way it has change from being old to new. The big changes has made it looked like the movie has just came out and is about to be playing in the theaters. Even though I have already gotten the old version series of A Chinese Ghost Story, these new remastered versions are much much more better. Except for sometimes some scenes are in different colors, instead of the fires being red it was green/blue. But anyway these may be the last versions of A Chinese Ghost Story, and I hope that it is. Which makes These a great collection of A Chinese Ghost Story collection. |

A Chinese Ghost Story remastered version
|
I own this trilogy available on Laserdiscs and Megastar dvd because Im a Joey Wong fan. Fortune Star offers us today a better transfer compared to the previous releases. Luckily for me, DTS-ES sound is clear and they did a good job here. The orignal format 2.35 is curiously presented in 1.85 widescreen enhanced for 16 :9 in using a big zoom, color is nice, but the pixels proved to be visible even the average bitrate came up to 8.6Mbps, many scenes are misty or grainy (A Chinese Ghost Story 1 and 3), sometimes the data compression of Chinese Ghost Story 3 shows up, only the second one has an excellent transfer. After all, these three movies are very impressive ! |
