Magic Cop (1990) – Stephen Tung Wai.

Successfully capitalising on the wholly deserved popularity of Mr. Vampire, charismatic HK icon Lam Ching-ying returns as taciturn mystic rural cop Feng, summoned to the mainland in order to solve the confounding case of a zombie drug mule! Hugely inventive, exciting, winningly playful, and frequently very funny, Magic Cop remains a compelling admixture of athletic physical comedy, kinetic action, lively badinage, and exhilaratingly strange interludes of arcane Chinese sorcery! For me, Stephen Tung Wai's wild, deliciously eccentric, intricately bizarre opening sequence remains one of the most dynamic expressions of a hero's heroic persona ever conceived, with palpably more cinematic vitality than John's increasingly flaccid Wick!
