So I'm a connoisseur of awful movies. 70's Kung Fu, bad sci/fi, laughable horror, I can't get enough of them. But I've seen this animated gif floating around that I can't track down the movie for! I was hoping some of you guys might be able to help me, and maybe this thread could be used to help others as well, if they've got clips or screenshots they're not sure the origin of.

I did a Google Image Search and found a Chinese page that I ran through the translator. It translates the title as "Mr. Spirit Magic 1".

Edit: Doing some more Googling, it might be Mr. Vampire.

Holy crap, you're amazing! Thank you so much Carlson, this is just what I needed!

Turns out it's Mr. Vampire 3, and the fun starts at about the 33 minute mark - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SP-sLJMLzAY#t=1989

Edit: holy crap it looks like VHS copies are going for $100?

Goddamn. It must have had a very short run on VHS, at least in that language/subtitle. At the same time it must be fairly popular; a movie that never grew a fanbase (even a cult one decades later) would never go for that price.
