| As I was preparing to post my review of Chinese movie Ghost for Sales today, I learned that the star of this movie, Ricky Hui, died this morning. This is sad, of course. Ricky Hui starred in dozens of golden era Hong Kong movies, and his distinctive looks, his understated comedic acting style, and his deft martial artistry were a reliable staple of so many weird and goofy movies. That he died on the day I posted my first review of him seems like the kind of coincidence that would only happen in the world of a Hong Kong movie. RIP, Ricky Hui. Such as it is, this movie review is for you. |

You might think that a movie titled Ghost for Sales would have a ghost that was for sale. Or perhaps a salesman of ghosts, trying to ply his trade. Or perhaps a ghostly sales clerk, or a ghostly job seeker, looking for some employment in sales. But this is a Hong Kong produced Chinese movie, not a Hollywood film. So of course this movie is none of those things. Instead, Ghost for Sales is a delightfully mixed up, Three-Stooges-style knock off of Ghost Busters.
