!!This film provides eaxmples of:

* ChineseVampire: Filled with them.
* DistressedDamsel: A drug agent is kidnapped, raped, tortured and held prisoner in the middle of the jungle.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: The drug lord is so moved by the ghost's tragic love story that he insists the priest perform a marriage ceremony on the spot.
* HollywoodCyborg: [=RoboWarrior=], the "android-like robot".
* MonsterMash: A cyborg battles against Chinese vampires, a drug cartel, a Kung Fu priest, a ghost and whatever a "Vampire Beast" is.
* NoEnding
* OffTheShelfFX: Put it this way … the Vampire Beast is a guy wearing a ''gorilla mask''.
* TogetherInDeath: That was the plan anyway...
--->'''Ghost:''' How dare you take my lover's corpse and turn it into a vampire beast! Now he is condemned to a living death and we can never be together in the afterlife!
--->'''Taoist Priest:''' But he is from the east and you the west. How can you explain this?
--->'''Ghost:''' Orientals are a stubborn race. Both his parents opposed our marriage. It was then that we decided if we could not be togther in this life, Peter and I would be together forever in the afterlife! You have robbed us of this by turning him into a vampire beast!
** Works out in the end though as they get married anyway despite being a ghost and some kind of super vampire creature.
* UnholyMatrimony: The Vampire Beast and ghost become wed partway through the film.
* WeCanRebuildHim: [=RoboWarrior=]. Twice. A drug agent is rebuilt as a cyborg after being killed by a vampire, then rebuilt ''again'' after being blown up by a rocket launcher.
