China's official censorship guidelines technically prohibit movies that
"promote cults or superstition" — a holdover from the Communist Party's
secular ideology — and the country's regulators occasionally have used this provision as rationale for banning films that
feature ghosts or supernatural beings in a semi-realistic way, such as the remake of Ghostbusters and Disney's Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, due their depictions of ghouls and cannibalism.
