The Resentful Woman Returns

1952 Drama Romance Horror

As the wealthy Ha Mung Shan nears death, he asks his son, Chung Ping, to marry his fiancée, Ng Yuk Keng. However, Yuk Keng loves Chung Ping’s brother, Bo Ming. To avoid upsetting his father, Chung Ping pretends that a singer, Su Qiu, is Yuk Keng and brings her home. Meanwhile, Yuk Keng’s aunt, Xing Hong, covets her father’s inheritance and attempts to kill Su Qiu, framing Chung Ping. Su Qiu survives, cared for by the Fu family. Later, Xing Hong kills Yuk Keng to live with Bo Ming, but he refuses. Taking the inheritance, Xing Hong stays with the Fu family and regrets her actions. Ha Mung Shan then arranges a new marriage for Chung Ping. Su Qiu, seeking revenge, disguises herself as a ghost on the wedding night, exposing the truth. Bo Ming confronts Chung Ping, and Xing Hong confesses her guilt. Mung Shan realizes Bo Ming is his son, and Chung Ping reunites with Su Qiu, leading to a happy ending.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The Resentful Woman Returns is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1952. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
