I hope I can urge people to see this movie. It's not a porno movie but it does boast hot simulated sex with gorgeous women. If you have seen this movie on the new DVD or the old video then do yourself a favor see ERotic Ghost Story 2! Part two is quite a show. It has better hotter sex and Outrageous action scenes that only Hong Kong films can offer. The Photography is great and the kinkiness is right on. Eye candy gone mad.
From the director of the amusing "The Story of Ricky" and the downright bleak "Her Vengeance" comes..."Erotic Ghost Story", a sensual reworking of George Miller's "The Witches of Eastwick". Yes, the film does rip "Witches" off and it does feature some very poor effects sequences (the transformations are like something from the 50's), but...
If Asian women rock your boat, hop on board this erotic masterpiece. I didn't care for the story. I didn't care for the bumbling, hideously irritating character known as "Scholar". All I cared for was seeing more full-frontal nudity of the achingly beautiful creatures who prance across the screen in various states of undress.
There is a plethora of mouth-watering images of breasts, vaginal lips, firm bottoms, tongues, sisters engaged in lesbian loving, masturbation, wind-swept ponds of flower petals, carefree nymphs dancing through fields of swaying grass, you name it, this flick's got it...
As long as you're not expecting anything more than pure female flesh.
It's better than the self-conscious "Sex and Zen" and it leaves its own sequels in the dust.
The music, like its cast, is hypnotic, too.

Erotic Ghost story is an erotic horror Hong Kong movie starring Amy Yip, Man so, Hitomi Kudo and Ha Chia Ling. The movie is directed by Lam Ngai Kai.
The movie is based on the story of three sisters who have attained human form who helps a scholar and than indulge into a relationship.
The story is straight and expected but the movie is full of erotic scenes although it would be wrong to call the movie porn. The actresses are beautiful and sensual and the movie could be a perfect watch for the lovers of soft porn erotic movie.

Erotic Ghost Story is an hour and a half of smutty Hong Kong craziness that more than delivers what most viewers will be after, namely copious amounts of nudity from its three sexy stars, beautiful So Man, delectable Hitomi Kudô, and the always breastabulous Amy Yip. Happy to shed their clothes at every opportunity, these three actresses play ancient animal spirits who are in the final days of becoming human, but who find their transformation threatened when they all fall for the same man, a scholar named Wu Ming (Lap-Man Sinn), who just happens to be a wicked demon in disguise.
First to get jiggy with lucky Wu Ming is well-endowed Cat III legend Amy Yip, who works up a serious sweat satisfying the scholar. Yip is closely followed by Hitomi Kudô, who is guaranteed to send blood pressures sky high by daring to bare the most, giving viewers an eyeful of her nether regions before getting to work; So Man goes last and shows that, even though she might be the oldest, she's still got what it takes. And when the three women learn that they have all slept with Wu Ming, what do they do? They have a foursome with the fellow, of course. Phew!
The loving ends, however, when the women witness Wu Ming in his true form, as Wu-Tung, a hideous three-faced monster with huge claws who tortures a hapless young woman, tearing the skin off her face (the hilarious special effects have to be seen to be believed). Crafting a voodoo doll, the trio take revenge on the fiend, eventually seeking help from a Taoist priest who causes the demon to explode. All of this silly horror is a whole lot of fun, as is the occasional spot of daft comedy from the girls' nosy neighbours Mr and Mrs Wang.
Followed by two sequels, both of which sound just as sexy and just as bonkers. Count me in!
7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.

Erotic Ghost Story surely is not as infamous as Sex & Zen - that being said, it was made before that. And you can tell that it is one of the first movies done for (or by) the Cat 3 rules. They still were trying to figure things out - figure, which is something you get a lot here. Ghosts not so much - more like Spirits and beast.
Although I reckon some might argue that in their natural state (is it though?) the beauties are not at all that - beautiful that is. But their human bodies/pods are as good looking as one might hope for. That being said and as the one true part in the international title is being truthful: you get a lot of nudity. Not sure how erotic you will find the things happening. Especially the ones where men convince women by just being persistent ... on the other hand the movie itself does not take itself too seriously, so I don't think it tries to be offensive or should be viewed that way - but fair warning for those who are easily triggered.
And while we're at the subject matter: while most nudity is in the upper area (mostly female of course), there is some flesh down below. And while the bare behind isn't something that most would feel offended by, there is one scene where you can clearly see female genitalia. Without pubic hair to cover it up either. It kind of is unnecessary and out of touch wit the rest of the movie, but it is what it is. Just telling you, in case you get triggered by it.
The movie also mixes a bit of fighting and a lot of comedy into the paper thin plot. I don't remember if I ever saw this or the subsequent sequels (there have been 2 others), but I can't imagine them being as out there - no pun intended. That being said the Naked Killer movie (and the movies that are being considered "sequels", not going to name the titles, you know where to look on imdb if you care) probably went way beyond anything seen here. Not just in the movies but how they treated the actors involved. So I guess while this is not being considered an outright comedy and more an erotic adventure, if you watch it as a comedy it can work. You also have to take into account the sensibilities of the times ... they were different back then - I already gave you examples above.
All in all this is something you have to consider: is it worth your time? It is quite the curiosity and I was intrigued by it. Not titilating or exciting really - but you may feel different about that too.
