Fei Chow woo sheung

This is a movie that'll have you in splits, and thoroughly enjoying yourself. A sequel to the "Gods must be crazy"(even though not from the same director etc), this movie is probably the best of the lot.

A parody of a hit Chinese comedy movie called Mr. Vampire, the story begins when a Chinese guy and his vampire grandfather end up in the Kalahari desert. This is where the real fun starts. They meet various people, Nixau, a bushman(the only character who's made it to all the "Gods must be crazy" films).

While telling you more would be possible, it'd spoil the pure unadulterated fun! This is a must-watch, as are all the other prequels.

I rate this a solid 10!

The Gods Must Be Crazy III (a.k.a. Crazy Safari- 1991) C- 96 min. Lung Chan, Sam Christopher Chow, Stephen Chow, Ching-Ying Lam, Man Tat Ng, N!xau, Peter Pau. Xixo, the bushman from THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY films returns, this time getting involved with a magician and an ancient Chinese vampire, along the way learning some kung fu moves. Odd, to say the very least, this movie was a hard find, video title CRAZY SAFARI and only available on coolvcd.com in the VCD (Video CD) format. The film itself is hard to understand due to the Cantonese language (the version I have was translated, but still barely audible) but some parts did make me chuckle and it was nice to see N!xau the bushman back in action, even if it was in a far lesser film than the first two GODS movies. The rating is solely based on what I could gather. RATING: 5 out of 10.

This is the third "The Gods Must Be Crazy" movie released in the world, this time made by Hong Kong filmmakers who gave the series their own hilarious spin. We have Taoist Priest HiSing, played by no other than famed Vampire Buster actor Lam Ching-Ying, and Leo (Sam Christopher Chow), visiting England to retrieve the preserved corpse (a hopping vampire) of Leo's ancestor for transporting back to Hong Kong. During the journey back, their plane crash lands into a village in South Africa, inhabited by Xi the Bushman and his tribe.

Like the first two movies, a lot of physical comedy and laugh-out-loud humor were in supply, from Xi's surprised and confused expressions as he meets HiSing, Leo and the vampire, to the tribe hilariously watching HiSing practice his martial arts moves. There are also some funny run-ins with wild animals including baboons and rhinos and some vampire action, including the funny scenes of the creature taking on a city gang, and him later chasing the bushman around the village huts.

This movie has a simple plot, basically concentrating on HiSing and Leo's retrieval of the vampire to their experiences in the South African village. However, there is an exciting good guy vs. bad guy subplot involving a diabolical African tribe and Western smugglers. Throw in some vampire and martial arts action into the mix, with Xi and the Bushmen caught in the middle, and you will get one entertaining movie.

It is a refreshing film - very captivating to see a blend of Hong Kong and South African cinema in the breathtaking jungles and villages.

Grade B+

The best of all "the gods must be crazy" movies. Chinese humor is excellent. (Note, I am not Chinese. I live in America) Vastly underrated. Perhaps, they did not show it in many American theaters because they were afraid that westerners might not be able to appreciate the movie.

Excellent acting.

Excellent script. The creators of this movie should make more similar movies.

I saw this movie a long time ago. But still remember it. It has lots of humor which does not require much thinking. Good clean fun. I do not remember any offensive content in the movie.

The main english title for this ia Crazy Safari, but its also known as Gods Must Be Crazy 3 and Vampires Must Be Crazy.

So after the success of the 2 South African comedies "Gods Must Be Crazy 1 and 2", Hong Kong got hold of Nixau and teamed him up with Lam Ching Ying from the Mr Vampire films, this was the result...and it worked.

Some great comedy here...Nixau does Bruce Lee,..So they mixed two excellent series so it couldn't fail really, so if like the Mr Vampire films or the Gods Must Be Crazy films its a must watch.

This actually has narration by Stephen Chow and Ng Man Tat, in the style of Gods 1 and 2, but there are no subs for what they say.

Now check out the other 2 HK films with Nixau.

10 out of 10.
