Rigor Mortis Plot Synopsis:
In this eerie and chilling, contemporary, action/special effects laden homage to the classic Chinese vampire movies of the 1980's, writer-director-producer, Juno Mak makes his feature directorial debut. Co-produced by J-Horror icon Takashi Shimizu, and reuniting some of the original cast members of the classic Mr. Vampire series, RIGOR MORTIS is set in a creepy and moody Hong Kong public housing tower whose occupants we soon discover, run the gamut from the living to the dead, to the undead, along with ghosts, vampires and zombies.
Juno Mak"s Rigor Mortis (2013) promises horror action while battling vampires, zombies and ghosts, beautiful. I wanted to see this Asian horror movie since I saw the first photos that were releases a while back. On May 6, 2014, we will see Rigor Mortis in the US limited theaters and on VOD. Anthony Chan, Siu-Ho Chin and Kara Hui star in Rigor Mortis.
