While Celestial remastered the majority of the Shaw Brothers catalog, they didn’t do them all. Some prints were beyond repair, some missing entirely, some had rights issues, and for some they didn’t believe there was enough interest in them. And sadly The Enchanted Chamber is one such film.
Thankfully private collectors have preserved a good number of these and this is one of them. The version we have isn’t fantastic, but it’s more than watchable, and it’s certainly better than nothing.
The Enchanted Chamber is based on a story from Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio by Pu Songling, notable because it was first published way back in 1740 and is thought to have been written in the mid-1600s. And the same story was also the source for the popular A Chinese Ghost Story.
It follows a scholar, played by Chin Feng, in his task of collecting a debt owed to his father. Along the way he meets mischievous fox fairy, Margaret Hsing Hui, and vengeful ghost, Lily Li. When it turns out the debtor, played by Wong Ching Ho, is up to no good, the three team up to bring him down.
But it’s so much more than that. We get action, fantasy, comedy, betrayal, revenge, songs, possession, and a taoist priest doing his thing. While this isn’t the first Shaw Brothers film to take the kitchen sink approach, it is the first to do such a good job of blending all its elements. Nothing seems out of place or forced, everything naturally flows from the story.
