It's been six years now

What did you do in the past?

Well, I've been an office clerk a bank teller

Sorry, I'm afraid not

Japanese?

No!

Alright, Mr. Cheung

we'll let you know as soon as we decide

Thank you!

Don't use gas if you are so stingy with money, use firewood instead

You make such a shady deals

I'll buy from another store next time

So much the better

You think we'll close down just because you don't buy from us?

It would even save me trouble bringing this heavy tank up

Good-bye!

Lan, what's happening?

Forget it, come back

I hope that you'll give birth...

to a baby with no asshole

You want a fight?

Don't argue with such kind of person

You are really hot-tempered be careful with the baby

We have been using...

one tank of gas a month

And now the tank runs out in three weeks

Don't you think they are cheating on us?

Could be the things that we've been cooked for the baby these days

You men are all the same

What?

Just now when I complained that the gas running out faster than it should...

that bastard said

You must be cooking cowhide every night...

Alright we'll buy from another store next time

Don't get angry so often...

be careful that the baby doesn't turn out like you

So you think you are a model father

Let me do it

Be careful, I'm pregnant You are going to bump into the stove

Will you please take the trouble of putting on your slippers?

It will dry very soon

How was the interview today?

Why don't you answer me?

I was turned down, of course

Why don't you go back to my father's bra factory?

Where is the newspaper that I bought?

Yes?

Did you hear what I said?

Yes

Answer me then

Had I wanted I would have gone back long ago

Even the house we are living in now is his

Do you really want me to depend on him for my whole life?

I would be ashamed even if you weren't

Have you ever thought that the baby

will have to rely on you?

It's not that I don't care for the baby

Don't you see that I'm willing to take up any job?

Come on, don't be like that

Okay, go brush your teeth

Stand back...

Get in!

Hurry...

Watch out for the fellow over there Tell them to step aside

That guy is really ferocious...

Barging in here with a one-foot-long melon chopper

Must be from the Mainland if not Vietnam

I think so It must be

Bastard

But he looks so lean and dried up Could be a drug addict

The he could be much ferocious

Please let us enter, sir We are reporters

Reporters only!

(Goldfield Enterprise Limited)

Get out!

What do you want?

I'd like to see the manager I'm here for an interview

He is not in now He has gone to see Jesus Christ

What?

Give way please

Give way please

Nothing to see, get out of here

Wow, what happened? Robbery?

No, a guy was fired...

and he came back to chop up the manager A lunatic

Really?

Why are you not having aspen seeds with pig's liver soup?

You know there is nothing I dislike more than eating innards

Now throw that away

Pig liver gives you blood It's good for the baby

Why are you always watching TV and eating at the same time?

What's wrong? Don't you like the food?

No!

Why are you putting food in my bowl?

You are so busy watching TV

What do you plan to do now?

If you can't find a job we'll have to wait for another month

It's no use begging me about it

I'm not picky as to what job I'll take but people are picky with me

Not picky? Then why don't you work for my father?

Have we subscribed any newspaper?

We are almost starving and you only think of subscribing newspaper

There's only me, Mr. H.K.

Little Ting and Fatty patrolling this building...

but our security is the best in this area

You have to be extremely alert to be a watchman

Otherwise you may even be thrown down from the building

Well, be alert when you are on duty

Yes, I see

We turn off the elevator

On night shifts, we have to take a walk around the building once an hour

You will get used to that very soon

Did you read in the newspaper that

people planted bombs in the building in Central?

It's fortunate that the shopping arcade here has not been rented yet

Or else, we would go busy that...

we wouldn't even have time for the bathroom

Old Uncle Han

Have a cigarette

No, thanks The offices are all let out now?

Oh, yes. There are still the arcade and the basement lift

Old Uncle Han

Old Han, just now the lights in the left suddenly went off

Never mind. It's always like that

They have someone in charge of that

Doesn't help to be suspicious...

you might end up scaring yourself unnecessarily

The one on beat now is Mr. Hong Kong...

and this Little Ting, he's still studying in a technical school

I'm Fatty

You can see...

every corner of the building here

If anything happens, call your colleagues through the intercom...

so that they can be there at once

On more thing...

remember to call the main office every hour

You have seen the control room in the main office

In one word, let the office decide

Don't do on everything yourself

Old Uncle Han, I think I will not go to have tea, I'm sorry

Come on Pretty weak of you not to be able to

bear one night of patrolling

Mr. H.K. This is the first day Keung came to work

Let's treat him to breakfast as a celebration

That's a good idea? Okay?

Thank you very much But I'm really tired

Look at him his eyes are blacker than a panda's

Okay, let him be

Go home and rest don't get your wife worrying

Let's go

Good-bye

You gain a little weight Why your husband doesn't accompany you?

He works at night so he's taking his nap in the day-time

Alright, get down

Doctor, I feel very tired these days

Doesn't matter, it's normal

take more rest and you'll feel better

Take a deep breath

Doctor, anything wrong?

Don't worry, the baby's fine

When will the baby born?

Around the end of this month

It's normal at the first time pregnant

You're lucky being a human

an elephant will bear it's baby for 2 years

Vegetable

Do you know where Fatty park his car It's been so long

His ugly car ought to be thrown into the bin

Keung, you've been working for a week do you accustomed to the job?

I have no problem but my wife is not accustomed to it

It can't help...

our wives just live like widows

After a few months, you can't tell when is daytime and when is night...

seeing people as if you're seeing ghosts

Don't say weird things to scare Keung

Really, it's true

What a coincident to meet you here!

Hello

Lucky, why don't you eat?

What's keeping you so long? Couldn't find a parking space

If you were any later I would have eaten your share

Go ahead, it's only pig's legs

I'll buy a ten-catty-suckling pig

Then see if you still want to have any more pork!

Sure. No kidding?

Come on, let's eat

Fatty has an uncle who raises pigs in the New Territories

No wonder you are as fat as a pig

Look who's talking! Your mouth is as wide as a tub

Oh right, let's eat Eat, they're kidding

Hey, how dare you silly dog troubling me. I'll kill you

Don't frighten the puppy

You can take the dog and keep it if you want

Keung, I have to take a leak Wait for moment

Ah, can't wait anymore Wait for me and I'll go down with you

Be quick!

Don't loss your way Sure

Stupid, got my own finger

Who?

Forget it

It's Ah Keung. What's the matter? Over

A call for you from home come down now, over

Such a smart chap and he has to be a watchman

The fault of society

Uncle Han, I'm coming right now, over

Fatty, hurry up, the lift has come

Coming

What's the hurry! Coming

Maybe the baby has come. I'll go down first to answer the telephone

Wait for me

What's the hurry? Rushing to get born yourself?

What's the matter?

Come over and take a look at this lift

It had gone down beyond the ground floor...

and there's water all around

It's impossible Let's take a look

Hey, what the devil. What are you doing here all standing like idiots?

Where's the water?

Hey, Fatty, are your pants wet?

You're crazy

How come it's dry now? Hey, even the wall's clean

It was wet then and lift door couldn't be opened

Nothing, huh? Same as usual?

Nothing

The lift went into the ground then the doors went open...

and there is a terrible potrait on the wall

Ha, is it the face like Fatty?

You're an idiot

All right, all right. Don't say anymore

I'll get someone to fix the lift tomorrow

Nonsense

Let's go

Old Uncle Han didn't say there was a call for me?

Who said so?

Let's go. Trying to fool us

It's strange

If you had waited for me it wouldn't had happened

Old Uncle Han, have a midnight snack

What do you want, Mr. H. K?

Something delicious

Smells good

Hey, come on

Where do I find time to eat? I have to submit my project tomorrow

Do it tomorrow. Come on It's tasty

Smells good

Come on...

Great colour

Come on. Time to eat

Did you really dispose the puppy at Min Kee?

Ha, it dragged all the garbage out from the lift

It deserved

This is dog flesh?

Let's eat. It's good for the body

Eat the dog flesh, health your body

It is not Kissinger

Have some greens

I'll have some vegetables

Mr. Hong Kong

Make sure the boss there doesn't put huge bone...

in your plate to choke you

Don't worry. Nothing will happen

If he did that, I will kill his wife

Eating dog meat in this hot weather Is it kind of feverish?

It's good for your health and also good for your eyes...

when you're getting old

Why are you all standing hallway?

He said that the lift went straight into the ground

Oh, really? Ah Keung you really have a bad luck

Things always happen to you but never to me

It's true. I hadn't lie to you

Lies or no lies

As long as I'm here, you are safe

I still have the bowl of dog blood here

If any devil comes up I'll just pour the blood over it

I don't believe you

Oh, you don't believe me?

What's happen?

Don't say it. Spit and say something else. Come on, spit

Nothing will happen to me Let's finish it

You big hulk. How are you? Hey, what is wrong?

Hey, are you all right?

Swallow it

Big Hulk! How do you feel? Big Hulk!

Big Hulk! Big Hulk! Big Hulk! How do you feel?

Someone's choking please send an ambulance

Please give way

the bone is here...

Don't...

Master Chiu. How's the Fung Shui here?

Is it good for my mother's grave?

Look at the right position Ok

It's extremely important for you to make these changes

Thank you very much. Good-bye

Goodbye

Thank you for your help

We can go now

Watch out Yes, thank you

With this incense I humbly inquire for the right day...

when heaven and earth open. When smoke wavers in the air, gods will descend

When it rises, gods will be everywhere

Fatty do you feel Mr. H.K. Died strangely?

Yes, very strange, but...

But what?

Don't mad at me after I said

Before you came

it always all peace and quiet in the building

Just two nights ago when you went up to patrol

I heard someone calling your name outs of the lift

At first I thought Little Ting was trying to scare you...

but then I saw him on the TV on his way to the bathroom

So I went to the lift to take a look...

and the calling stopped Then you came down from downstairs

Strange! Could there be ghosts in this world?

But Old Han says there aren't any He's been a watchman for a long time

That's what he tells you

If he didn't say that

who would come to rent the offices?

From tomorrow onwards you will be on day shift

Who is going to take your wife for check-up?

Could you help me?

Okay, when will the baby come?

Soon. The doctor told her to be ready at anytime

I got to go

Kissinger, let's go

What did the doctor say?

He was choked to death

Choked? It can't be. Even if he was

what about the mud that he vomited?

Manager, what do you think to get some monks to clean the place?

What? Never!

The landlord called this morning upbraided us for what happened

It wasn't anything like this at all in the past

That fellow came only two weeks ago and...

we had one thing after another

In that case, shall I transfer him?

Better to fire him Fire him?

All right, you decide

In that case, I'll ask him to come over to my place for a little talk

Good. Good-bye

What are you doing? Thirsty?

Hey, be good

Let me

Thank you. Thank you very much

Has he misbehaved? No

It's been so much trouble for you too

Don't mention it The road was so congested...

when I came today

Don't be afraid Maybe it's too hot today

Keep quiet, you idiot

I think I won't go by your car

It's all right, I'll get a taxi for you

Thank you

Taxi!

Be careful!

You go ahead. I'll follow you

Ghost with a red clothes

Old Uncle Han!

Old Uncle Han

Any body home?

Ghost with a red clothes

Please step forward to pay homage to the dead

Stop. First bow, bow again, and again

The mourning family will thank the guests

Hey, you know something?

The site of our buildings used to be a hideout for child kidnappers

Really? How did you find out? Yes

Look!

Really it is! Yes, it's real

Many children were murdered

That person...

Please step forward to pay homage to the dead

Stop. First bow, bow again, and again

It's him. Why is he come here?

Do you notice anything special

about the three objects hung up there?

Those are three gourds!

Right But notice there is no shadow under them

The sun is directly above us

Where the yin is the weakest and the yang is the strongest

That is why it is said that noon is the best time for funerals

Master What do you keep so many toads for?

It's for suppressing ghosts

Mr. Cheung

is it true that in the past you were very often fired from your job

Yes. How do you know?

Would you mind telling me the year month, day and hour of your birth?

I was born by the Western Calender on the fourth of June

I'm 28 years old

I don't remember what it is by the Chinese Calender

No wonder

Mr. Cheung, there are not too many people who are born at a time...

with such overwhelming yin You have no say over your own matters

Why?

Master, I feel as if I've born on the wrong track these days

So many strange things have happened

Why don't you show me your working place?

Oh, that's good

You're so helpful, Master

Both for you and myself!

I tried to warn you at the cemetery time

Well, maybe it is predestined!

Master, what is wrong?

Oh, nothing. I won't tell you now

Tomorrow, show me your house

Lan

Master. There you are! I wanted to give you a call just now

Were you all right last night, Master?

I was all right!

So there are ghosts in the basement?

Nothing to be afraid of I will deal with it

I don't know why but my wife moved the furniture for no apparent reason

I hope there is nothing wrong with it

It is no good for you at all to have this wooden shelf in the middle

Why?

For you this the Seat for the Five Emperors

If you allow to be put here you would be muddled all the time

Move it away now

Why did you use such that colour of the wall?

My wife said it made her feel cool

How many rooms do you have here?

Living room, kitchen, bathroom bedroom, four altogether

Four!

One is for evil two for indifferent fortune...

three for propitiousness and four for misfortune;...

A heavy object placed in the Seat for the Five Emperors

this a house of misfortune

House of misfortune?

Master

Don't be afraid, though

I'll teach you how to avert clamities and to approach propitiousness

One thing you should do now is don't resign from your job

Why?

You wouldn't be able to escape from your fate even if you did

It might even make the matter worse

Now, remember what I just told you No cause to be alarmed

Remember

When will the baby come?

The doctor said in these few days

Here are the three amulets

Tomorrow at noon that is, before one o'clock...

paste them up in the building where you work

I've already written down the exact places

Don't be afraid

Didn't I tell you that the yin is at its weakest at noon?

Once they are put up you and your family will be alright

Why did you move the furniture around again?

You nearly scared me to death

Who is the man that you brought here so stealthily?

He is a geomancist

What did you bring him home for?

Oh, nothing. I asked him to examine the fung shui of our house

What is there to examine?

Oh, you think there is something bad with fung shui in this house

Did he tell you to move the wooden shelf here?

It's more pleasing to the eye to have it here than there

The important thing is that it please me

I specially tidied up the place and see it's all messed up again

And what are you doing now?

You said that you dislike innades

Why did you buy so much lungs and livers?

But now I like it!

Now, let me make this clear to you

Everything in this house comes under my management

You are not to touch a single brick without my permission

You don't want Ah Keung to be hurt by that ghost

You have to help him

When noon comes

paste the first amulet on the centre of the roof

His ethereal element will be sealed

Are you all right?

I'm sorry!

Have a fit

I'm really sorry

Where did you get your driving licence?

Uncomfortable? Let's get in the car

Excuse me. Please take the other lift This one is out of order

Unbelievable. How come it is out of order all of the sudden?

Hi, I'm sorry about that

Put another one on the top of the lift His pulse of life will be blocked

Who put this up? Superstitious!

Let's get off here and have some tea

It's almost time for my appointment

It won't be long, get off the car

Be careful!

The third amulet is to be put on the northern exit of the basement

I will be able to find out his intention

Now his ethereal element, pulse of life and perineum are all pinned down

Let's go. What are you looking at?

What are you looking at? Hurry up

Let's going in. Come on

Come on

What are you doing? Hurry up and finished it. We are late

Oh, do you want some? No, thanks. I'm full

How are you now? My belly hurts

Try to bear the pain for a while We'll go as soon as I finish the bread

Waiter, the bill please

Mr. Cheung

I shouldn't keep this from you anymore

From the first instant that you stepped into this building...

your whole family have fallen into the trap of an unappeased spirit

The trap of an unappeased spirit?

Do you remember I once asked you the time of your birth?

Yes

Ay... born in the year of yin day of yin, and hour of yin...

together with the sun was devoured by the heaven dog

That was the moment when of evils are uncontrollable

It is difficult to find another person in this world...

who born in all these circumstances

If he had wanted to possess you...

it would have been as easy as a breeze

That is why I didn't understand why he did not possess you

Oh, possess me?

But after I saw your wife everything became clear

You mean he wanted to possess Ah Lan

No he wants to be reincarnated as your son

As my son!

Master, could it be that?

Mr. Cheung. Think for yourself Ever since your wife got pregnant...

you have never had a good day and it is getting worse and worse

Then you found this job...

and two of your colleagues died mysteriously

Can't you see the connection?

What I can't figure out...

is why this ghost took all the trouble to direct you to that building

Master... what should I do now?

All right, listen carefully

Little Ting! Hey, Fatty!

I leave now You are really quitting?

I have already resigned Can't stay anymore

Go back to Yuen Long to be a farmer Fatty?

Hey, give us a call sometime We can have dinner together

Okay. We'll see

See you all

Goodbye

It's high time you felt frightened

Ah Kwai, you have finished patrolling Yes

If I ever come back, I am not a man!

Why does it happen?

Don't, please don't, don't...

Don't...

Please don't...

Why you choose me? It's none of my business

All you evil spirits, go back to the West Depart from this realm

Heavenly army, please come as quick as you're called upon

It's pain...

What are you doing?

Get lost

Don't... Don't...

Don't... Don't... Please stop!

You better kill me if you do that

You smashed the kitchen stove Don't want the baby?

Ah Keung!

Don't worry. Everything will be fine

With the help from the sky and land and the pour the Octagon

Drop dead, evil spirit!

Master, master, how are you now?

He's got me. There isn't much time

He will come out at the hour of yin and if he succeeds...

he will be reincarnated as your son

You're too soft hearted!

Why didn't you smash the kitchen stove completely?

The only thing to do now is to hurry to the building...

find out his hiding place and destroy him before dawn

Master, wait. I'll call an ambulance

Don't mind me

Take this amulet with you to suppress him

When you find the corpse...

put this on the navel the gate of live

If he succeeds in being reincarnated...

your wife and you will become evil spirits too...

and there will be no end to destruction

Go now

Remember you have to destroy him before dawn

Master, master!

Keung, Ah Keung! It hurts so much!

Ah Keung...

Little Ting, Little Ting!

Ah Keung!

Little Bo. What is the matter?

Ah Kwai, oh...

Keung, come here, Keung, over here...

Little Ding. Don't run. Wait for me!

It hurts me so much

Keung, come down. Keung, Keung!

Little Ting. Wait for me I'm coming down at once

Keung, come down, come down!

Little Ting!

Let me go! Let me go!

Big Hulk got killed cause he talked too much

And the Old Uncle Han knows too much about the haunted building, so...

The Craven Fatty drove straight toward the gate of hell

Why do you choose me?

It's you who wanted to harm me!

I didn't intend to do that in the beginning. But you wanted to destroy me

It is the wish of heaven that I should get birth again

Without your blood I will never be reincarnated

Without the right hour comes tonight I will live again. Ha...

Brothers...

Don't

Don't...

Push, push...

You have to destroy the evil before dawn

If he succeeds in being reincarnated...

your wife and you will become evil spirits too...

and there will be no end to destruction

Why did you predestinate me?

Not the other, but me?

Why? Why?

We have not seen Ah Keung for a week

Still nowhere in sight!

I think he doesn't know that he has a pretty baby girl now

I guess so!

Be careful!

Mommy, I can go up by myself!

Ah Ho. Go help her upstairs

Yes

Bye, dad and mom

Bye Take more rest!

Lady, let me hold the baby!

Fine, I can do it

Her eyes are big, how lovely she is

Whom does she resemble?

Her father of course!

Right?

She smiles, lovely!

Ah Ho, will you please buy a can of powder milk for me?

I can go up myself

Yes. You'll be careful

Don't cry. Smile?

My baby. You'll see your Daddy very soon

It's here. We are back

Be good, don't cry. Ah Keung...

Your daddy has deserted you
