The 2014 New York Asian Film Festival is exactly what it sounds like: a festival, in New York, showcasing films made in Asia, and it’s taking place in 2014 – from June 27, 2014 to July 14, 2014 to be precise. If you enjoy J-horror, K-horror, Yakuza crime dramas, Triad crime dramas, martial arts epics, or maybe you feel all Asian cinema has a certain je ne sais quo that film made in western countries just doesn’t, then you might want to check our the NYAFF. Its got classic films – like the Shaw Brothers Studio’s One-Armed Swordsman (1967) – to go with the new ones – like Umin Boya’s Kano (2014). The kung-fu, vampire-comedies Mr. Vampire (1985) and Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires (1974; featuring Peter Cushing as Van Helsing) will be shown alongside Mr. Vampire‘s “spiritual sequel” Rigor Mortis (2013).
