Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Rigor Mortis is a 2013 Hong Kong horror-action film directed by Juno Mak and produced by Takashi Shimizu. The film is a tribute to the Mr. Vampire film series, though with a significantly less comedic tone. It also notably stars many of the former cast of that film series.Formerly successful actor Chin Sui-ho (played by the real life actor) moves into a dilapidated apartment complex to commit suicide after his wife leaves him. However, when he attempts to hang himself, his body ends up becoming possessed by the vengeful spirits of twin women. The resident retired vampire hunter, Yau (Anthony Chang) comes to his rescue, casting the spirits out. Unfortunately, the possession proves to be just the beginning as the untimely death of one of the tenants brings with it an even greater supernatural threat.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Adam Westing: As far as we're aware, the real Chin Sui-ho did not fight actual supernatural forces or was suicidal. Granted, his fights with Tung and the twins were revealed to be part of a Dying Dream, but the real life actor is also still alive.

Abnormal Limb Rotation Range: The twins are capable of contorting their limbs in some pretty disturbing ways.

Albinos Are Freaks: Subverted with Pak. Despite him drawing some unnerving pictures of the twins, he's more a case of Children Are Innocent.

And You Were There: All of the characters in the movie were people Chin passed by on his way to his room to commit suicide. However, there are marked differences between their "dream" and real versions.

Anti-Villain: Auntie Meiyi was a genuinely kind old lady, but the sudden death of her husband Uncle Tung causes her to go to some objectionable extremes to resurrect him, eventually deciding to sacrifice a child.
