Mr. Vampire II, (Chinese: 殭屍家族) also known as Mr. Vampire Part 2, is a 1986 Hong Kong comedy horror film directed by Ricky Lau, starring Yuen Biao, Moon Lee and Lam Ching-ying, and produced by Sammo Hung. The film is the second of a series of five films directed by Ricky Lau in the Mr. Vampire franchise. Mr. Vampire and its sequels were released as part of the jiangshi cinematic boom in Hong Kong during the 1980s.[1] The Chinese title of the film literally translates to "Vampire Family".

In the film, an archaeologist discovers a trio of immobilized jiangshi, and hopes to profit from his discovery. All three jiangshi are soon revived. A failed attempt to kill the two adult jiangshi results in their escape.

Plot

Kwok, an archaeologist, brings his two students with him in search of ancient artifacts. They stumble upon a cave and discover three jiangshi (Chinese "hopping" vampires) — an adult male, an adult female, and a male child. The vampires are immobilized because they have Chinese talismans stuck to their foreheads. Kwok brings them back to his lab and decides to sell the boy vampire in the black market.

While transporting the boy vampire, Kwok accidentally strips the talisman off its forehead and breaks the charm. The creature awakens and escapes. It enters a house by chance and befriends a little girl, who mistakes the young vampire for an illegal immigrant boy. Meanwhile, back in the lab, one of Kwok's students mischievously removes the talismans from the adult vampires and revives them. The vampires start to "hop" around and attack people. It took the three men much trouble to put them back to rest temporarily.

One of Kwok's students was bitten by the male vampire while fighting it, so he goes to see Dr Lam for treatment. Lam recognises the bite marks and realises that there are vampires running loose in town. Together with his daughter Gigi and his prospective son-in-law Yen, Lam embarks on a quest to destroy the vampires.

Lam tells Yen and Gigi to secretly follow Kwok's student back to the lab and find the vampires. While Gigi goes to notify the police of their discovery, Yen accidentally removes the talismans on the vampires' foreheads and awaken them. Luckily, Lam and Gigi show up and help him. After a long fight, they put the vampires to sleep using sedatives from the lab. The police arrive right after and take the two vampires to the morgue in the police station.

Lam and Yen sneak into the morgue and try to kill the vampires with a wooden sword but fail. Kwok and his students also arrive at the morgue because his student needs to get the blood of one of the vampires to cure himself after being bitten. Lam and Yen pretend to be corpses while Kwok and his students carry the vampires out. They put the bodies in the back of a truck while Lam and Yen sneak into the driver seat and hijack the truck. Later, they are stopped by police officers at a roadblock and the two vampires escape. The boy vampire sees the two adult vampires escaping on the news and lets out a loud cry that alerts the vampires to his location.

Lam and Yen hear on their radio that there are vampire sightings and they arrive at the children's house. With the help of the police, Lam and Yen kill the two adult vampires. However, after seeing how the children have grown fond of the boy vampire, Yen decides to inject it with anesthetics instead of killing it. He dresses up the vampire in normal clothing and sneaks it out of the house without the police noticing. Kwok arrives and falls to the ground. His students stand behind him, revealing that they have become vampires after failing to get a sample of vampire blood to cure themselves.
