Moon Lee plays a beautiful actress named Angel who is killed in a brutal fashion after she refuses the advances of a gangster. Twenty years later, a struggling young actor (Lau Chi-Wai) comes upon Angel's ghost, who teaches him some new moves which gain him the starring role in the local production, as well as the affection of one of the other stars of the show (Alvina Kong). In return, he and his uncle (Wu Ma) set out to help Angel gain her revenge on the gangster that took her life.

Plot

A pretty low-key and obscure Hong Kong fantasy flick where Moon Lee plays a Chinese opera ghost, out for revenge against a rich village figure who burned down the opera house after she refuses his sexual advances.The film has some nice martial arts action, decent acting and some thrilling moments, but the storyline seems to be nothing that we haven't seen before. The ghost elements seemed to be dwarfed by the love angle between the ghost and the male lead.Grade C+
