Watch it tonight if you're craving imaginative action-fantasy with genuine charm and style. This is a cult classic that blends supernatural romance, acrobatic martial arts, and practical creature effects into something totally unique—the kind of movie that sticks with you way more than its solid-but-not-spectacular scores suggest it should.

A naïve young tax collector for the imperial government winds up spending the night in a haunted temple. There he falls in love with a beautiful woman who, unfortunately, is dead.
