But the person here who merely copied over the PR blurb as a review should have it's pointy 'lil head checked :P

I wasn't expecting MR VAMPIRE 2004, and that's a good thing. This wasn't as nearly as good as it should have, even given the low budget treatment. Gordon Liu can only do so much to help this film. In comparison to any of the original Hopping Zombie films of the past, this doesn't hold a Joss stick - but if you are used to subtitled ATV or TVB series then this could be right up your alley.

Also, FYI: this is PART ONE of a two part series, even though little information to this effect has been found. Thus, there have been lots of reviews that mention the 'abrupt ending' as a turnoff...understandable.

Everybody Is Zombie Fighting! It's Kill Bill meets The Evil Dead in this rousing martial arts horror auctioneer starring the one and only "Master Killer" himself, Gordon Liu (Kill Bill 1, Kill Bill 2, Master Killer) Taoists priests Park (Liu) and Hak (Terry Fan from The Story Of Ricky and Iron Fist) have been competing with each other for leadership of their school by using various sorcerers. But when their battle accidentally awakens the King of the Vampires, who as laid dormant for a thousand years. Pak and Hak must unite and use the 5 Elements Formation to stop the demon and his army of darkness. Will their powers be enough to defeat this invincible immortal? Filled with hopping vampires, exploding zombies, and dazzling fights, Shaolin vs. Evil Dead is a nonstop special-effect kung fu gore fest!

This film has all the elements that can attract us: zombies, vampires, magic, amazing fights and a script that gives no respite. One of the protagonists has the ability to represent his son when he is older. There is no room for unbelief; when you think you've seen it all the Chinese grab a movie and with the same plot they do something inconceivable. Highly recommended film.

Shaolin VS The Evil Dead is true to its title. Having Gordon Liu as a Shaolin monk as the lead is certainly not a bad idea either. This film is a hybrid of martial arts, horror and comedy. This magical brew certainly works with all the kung fu fighting, hopping vampires, black magic and tongue in cheek humor than you can shake a stick it. I thought this was done pretty well and it put a smile on my face. Gordon Liu has aged well and even though he is in his 70's is still in fighting form and doesn't look like he aged much since Master Killer.l Being entertained is something you can definitely take to the bank with Shaolin VS The Evil Dead.

This movie ended so abruptly I rewinded the DVD, thinking it had skipped. Nope that was the end. I got a laugh out of that.

This movie was not bad, ending aside. Think "Power Rangers" quality acting and marshal arts, add in zombies and better sets and you have this movie. The main character reminded me of Yul Bryner but without much in the way of acting skills, his side kicks were amusing. The "bad guy" was over the top, making him enjoyable to watch and adding needed spark to this movie effort.

I have to say I was kept both entertained and amused so I can recommend this movie if you do not mind endings that are so abrupt you might think the camera just stopped working mid frame!
