Zhang Muye's best-selling novel series Ghost Blows Out the Light about tomb-raiding adventurers inspired two high-profile films in 2015, Wu'ershan's Mojin - The Lost Legend and Lu Chuan's Chronicles of the Ghostly Tribe . While the former is a crowd-pleasing blockbuster adaptation, the latter turned into a different fantastical beast in the hands of auteur Lu Chuan. Known for acclaimed works like City of Life and Death and Kekexili: Mountain Patrol , Lu departs from the source material to offer his own atmospheric take of the action-adventure that once again confirms that the director makes films to his own beat. Featuring dazzling special effects and cinematography, Chronicles of the Ghostly Tribe ventures into the great unknown with an all-star cast that includes Mark Chao, Yao Chen, Rhydian Vaughan, Li Chen, Tiffany Tang and Li Guangjie. In 1979, Hu Bayi (Mark Chao), along with Professor Yang (Wang Qingxiang) and his daughter Yang Ping (Yao Chen), leads an expedition deep into the Kunlun Mountains to investigate the origins of some strange fossils. During the expedition, the team gets attacked by mysterious creatures and comes upon a tower harboring unknown powers. In the end, Bayi alone makes it back out of the mountain. After leaving the army, Bayi returns to Beijing where he regularly receives information from an unknown source concerning Professor Yang's research into an ancient tribe civilization. Strange events continue to occur including Yang Ping and Professor Yang seemingly returning from the dead. Guided by a mysterious force, Bayi must return to where this all started the tower they opened years ago and a mystery that dates back centuries. Note: 3D television, 3D Blu-ray player and 3D glasses are required to view the 3D version of the film.
