"Prof. Van Helsing" (Peter Cushing) is lecturing a load of sceptical Chinese students about vampirism. They are so unconvinced that they walk out of his seminar. One, however, "Hsi Ching" (David Chiang) is convinced that the legendary Count has reincarnated near his local village where "Kah", the high priest of the legendary seven golden vampires has offered him his soul in return for the vampires restoring the dominant position of his priesthood. Short of funds, they manage to recruit the wealthy "Vanessa" (Julie Ege) and alongside his just as eager son "Leyland" (Robin Stewart) and seven young kung-fu experts all set off to this remote community where they will hopefully be in time to thwart the evil that is looming. When they arrive they discover, though, that's there also an army of the dead facing them - and things look ominous. Well, actually they don't really. The whole production is a bit cheap and cheerful, and save for the gravitas brought by Cushing, this would quickly be written off as a rather poorly written and acrobatically staged, lightweight Hammer feature that tries to integrate a different, Oriental, culture into an hackneyed format that can be fun to watch - you can almost see the wires and the costumes are of the cheapest form of latex - but the story is all just a bit too join the dots. These themes were very much running out of steam by now, and probably just as well because this is really just all rather poor.
