Dark adult fairytale. Scholar Chu Chung and his fiancee stay in a deserted temple, one dark night. Their host is Reverend Wick, a monk with the ability to shrink in size. Chu is drawn to a wall-frieze of three frolicking nymphs, which is a door to another world, and he convinces Wick to help him cross over. There, he is bewitched by I-Meng, whom he quickly marries. But trouble arrives in the form of Meng's mistress/boss. Man, this is one really wicked witch ! For instance, she tricks Chu into believing that her sworn enemy (played by Ho Ka Kui) rapes her two handmaidens. Chu then kills the enemy, which leaves her (the witch) all-powerful. Back in the real world, Chu's fiancee and Wick try to bring him back, but are then drawn to cross over as well. There are a few dashes of horror (e.g. the wicked witch eating the body of her recently-slain enemy) and comedy (Wick shrinks, to get inside the private parts of the wicked witch).
