	Spooky Encounters: A Gwailo's Guide to Hong Kong Horror
		A Gwailo, for the uninitiated, is the Chinese term for a white foreigner, literally translating as "ghost man" or "white ghost", thereby giving Daniel O'Brien's guide the sense of being both by and for the white outsider to Hong Kong Chinese culture.
		The general impression one gets from this history, then, is that those films which are relatively easy for the gwailo to see are also the best, their respective sequels and imitators frequently not worth the effort.
		Spooky Encounters: A Gwailo's Guide to Hong Kong Horror's only weak spot is a slight lack of focus implicit in its title and subtitle: While the supernatural emerges as the dominant manifestation of horror in the Hong Kong context, they are clearly not entirely commutative.

		In Hong Kong and Macau, the natives always consider them to be 'gwailo' even though they live under their administration for couple hundred years.
		Actually, the 'gwailo' term is not a demeaning term anymore.
		I think expressions like laowai in the PRC, gwailo in HK or angmoh in Singapore are not racial slurs, hence the court verdict, but they still do have a slightly negative overtone.

		Gwailo is Cantonese slang that literally means Devil Man and more figuratively translates as Foreign Devil.
		Foreigners are often referred to as many things—and often deserve many of the name’s they are called—but they are only called “devils” in Asia.
		Some sources say that gwailo, in and of itself, isn’t derogatory, and that the context determines whether or not it is disparaging.

		I was the only gwailo at the table, but everyone was friendly and chatty, attempting to speak in English and encouraging when I trotted out my few polite phrases in Cantonese.
		But then the fat lady showed up and stood behind me. She was of a type.
		She said something nasty about the gwailo at the table that made everyone else flinch and the person sitting to the right of me whisper "sorry" in my ear.

	The DVD Maniacs - Forum - Spooky Encounters: A Gwailo's Guide to Hong Kong Horror
		The lack of Shaw Brothers coverage is criminal IMO, and the short shrift shown by the author makes it appear he has little knowledge on that section of Hong Kong film history, which is required for this subject, as the Shaw Brothers produced FAR more horror films than the Golden Harvest or Cinema City combined.
		The book has a subheading of "A Gwailo's Guide to Hong Kong Horror." Now this is implying that the author is talking about Hong Kong horror as a whole, which he's not.
		The bulk of the book about Hong Kong horror of the '80s till today, specifically the horror/comedy cycle started in the wake of Sammo Hung's Spooky Encounters (the title of the book itself) AKA Encounters of the Spooky Kind.

		And then there's 'gwailo.' Before I left I was told by an acquaintance at the gay Asian organization I belong to in Washington that 'gwailo' in Cantonese is quite a foul, derogatory term.
		Literally it means 'ghost person.' But the connotation, in this highly death-fearing culture, is that of a hideous creature back from the grave that stinks because it's rotting and is white because it has no blood.

		n the charming world of the gwailo fanboy press, there's at least one modern HK director who's getting attention, and it's not Tsui Hark (we'll get to him later).
		It's Andrew Lau Wei Keung, (or simply Andrew Lau) and he's likely done more to bring HK movies into line with Hollywood fare than any other director (save Hark).
		Lau's fame among the gwailo extends even farther back, though, most prominently to his fifth outing as director, the deliriously titled Naked Killer 2: Raped by an Angel.
