	Lam Ching Ying : Original Vampire Slayer And Underated Action Hero
		Lam continued to make great films back in the East, had two children with his wife Cheng Bing Bing before making his directorial debut with 'One Eyebrow Priest' as well as continuing to choreograph films and train future greats such as Michelle Yeoh (of 'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' and 'Tomorrow Never Dies').
		Sadly, in 1997, Lam developed liver cancer, which was hereditary in his family but kept it to himself so as not to attract the pity of others, and subsequently disappeared from the public eye.
		Fortunately for his fans, Ching Ying's greatest achievements have been committed to celluloid and are now forever available on DVD for everyone to enjoy.

	[KFCC] Hocus Pocus Review
		Review: Lam Ching Ying was an accomplished action movie star for years before he was typecast as a ghost-busting Taoist priest when he starred in Mr.
		Lam Ching Ying isn't a Taoist priest here, but in leading the troupe, he plays a similar role to which we are used to seeing him, authoritative, calm yet bold, and responsible for younger, troublesome students.
		If you are fan of Lam Ching Ying, or the HK horror comedies so popular in the mid 80's, then this makes interesting viewing.

	Lam Ching Ying - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Madame reported Lam as a disobedient student who was beyond her ability to handle.
		The character was an engaging mixture of naivety and stoic authority, and became a favourite for audiences.
		Lam was to reprise this role many times throughout his career.

	Lam Ching Ying (1952 - 1997)
		Ching Ying passed away of liver cancer at the St. Theresa Hospital in Hong Kong on the 8th of November, at the age of 45.
		Ching Ying's request was to have a low-profile funeral, so his family did not immediately publicize his death.
		I was in the process of ‘rediscovering’ Lam Ching Ying when I learned of his passing, and it left me with an overwhelming feeling of emptiness and helplessness.

	Vampire vs. Vampire (1989)
		Lam is the resident Taoist priest, who apparently is used to running all over town and bagging ghosts, vampires and assorted other creatures.
		The kid vampire and Lam's students spend the first twenty minutes of the film engaging in all sorts of unnecessary mischief, which is more mind-numbing than funny or clever.
		Lam Ching-Ying doesn't waste his opportunity behind the camera to match pal Sammo Hung in the "questionable cinema" department.

	Mr. Vampire - The Bad Movie Report
		After much hopping about, and running and shrieking, master Kou (Lam Ching Ying) and a visiting priest burst into the room, bite their own fingers and use their own blood as makeshift talismans to stop the dead in their tracks.
		Lam Ching Ying would be more or less typecast as the Taoist Ghostbuster for the rest of his life, until his unfortunate death by liver cancer in 1997.
		Lam Ching Ying - Hero of This World and The Next - is an outstanding fan site; I cribbed most of the bio information from it.

	The Illuminated Lantern - Asian Cinema Reviews: Mr. Vampire
		Lam Ching-Ying stars as the Taoist sifu in the movie that made hopping vampires a staple of Hong Kong cinema and Lam Ching-Ying a household name.
		Women are prime candidates to become ghosts if they die at an early age, tragically, because they never belong to any family if they die before wedlock and therefore there would be no one to honor them or burn offerings to them in the afterlife.
		Lam Ching-Ying will revisit the Taoist Priest role regularly after this movie on through the rest of his life.

		It's everything people scoff at kung fu movies for not being, all in one place, all moving at the speed of light, and its power, grace and beauty can't be denied.

	LoveAsianFilm.com - Feature : Lam Ching Ying
		Lam had slowly become close friends with Sammo Hung (who can be seen fighting Bruce in the opening of Enter The Dragon), and he decided to join Sammo’s stunt team (Hung Gar Ban) as stuntman and action director.
		Around 1985, Lam Ching-ying trained Michelle Yeoh, (at the time she was Michelle Kahn) who had previously been a ballet dancer and beauty queen, into an on-screen martial artist.

	Actor Index
		Lam Ching Ying’s first opportunity to shine was as the fan wielding assassin in Yuen Woo Ping/Sammo Hung’s collaborative effort The Magnificent Butcher, where he engages in a superb duel with Yuen Biao.
		As the honorable, respectful and capable Taoist priest, Lam hit a chord with the audiences and it is nearly impossible to think of a Taoist priest without the image of Lam Ching-ying coming to mind.
		Lam Sai-wing had learned the Hung Fist from Wong and had passed it on to Lau Cham who then passed it on to his son Lau Kar Leung.

	[KFCC] Magic Cop Review
		Story: Lam Ching Ying is a modern day Hong Kong cop with extensive knowledge of Taoist rituals and superstition.
		Lam Ching Ying is teamed up with two junior police officers who find his ways stubborn and old fashioned, but they are forced to share his beliefs as the investigation leads them into battle with an evil Japanese sorceress.
		Also of note is the actress who plays Lam Ching Ying’s naïve young niece, a role usually reserved for Moon Lee.

	Magic Cop review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Lam Ching Ying takes on the supernatural underworld for one last time although the setting here is modern day (well..the eighties anyway) and his priest role is transferred into err…a cop….a magic cop.
		The Hong Kong police are baffled when a drugs trafficker, who manages to put up quite a fight, appears to have been already dead at the time of her arrest.
		Lam Ching Ying is just the same and despite playing a cop he's still the ghost busting Taoist priest that we know and love.

	Mr. Vampire Review
		Lam Ching Ying and his students Chin Siu Ho and Ricky Hui are vampire specialists.
		Lam and Ricky Hui (Sam Hui's brother, you wouldn't guess though heheheh) go to coffee with a noble man and order coffee, not knowing what it is. Moon Lee is the noble's daughter and is their example and she drinks the coffee, THEN the cream, just to throw them off.
		Lam keeps getting his head stuck in between the bars of his jail door, god it's so funny, watching him get frustrated is priceless.

	Hong Kong Digital #142a: Mr. Vampire
		Taoist priest Kau (Lam Ching-ying) and his bumbling assistants, Man Choi (Ricky Hui Koon-ying; image) and Chou (Chin Siu-ho), seek to end a streak of bad luck that is plaguing the Yam family (including Moon Lee Choi-fung as the westernized daughter).
		While some of the humor is overly broad by Western standards, the action (choreographed by Lam Ching-ying and Yuen Wah) is terrific and the film is definitely recommended to both students of Eastern horror mythology and casual viewers alike.
		Lam is so effective as the erudite sifu, he would become typecast in the role right up until his death.

		When Lam's challenged by Ching official Ngai into a "friendly match," tragedy catches up with Lam's opera troupe, as they're attacked in the night by ninja-like assassins.
		If I had to lodge any complaints against the movie, it would be that the way in which the murderers of Lam Ching Ying's opera troupe are dealt with is anticlimactic, and the meshing of comedy and drama is off-setting at times.
		Lam Ching-Ying doesn't have eyelashes, but if he did, he wouldn't bat a single one of them at the sight of his entire opera troupe butchered in their beds.

	Chinese Movie Review \| Magic Cop (1990) Ching-Ying Lam
		Actually, Lam was pretty much typecast in this sort of ghost busting role throughout his career, and played a suspiciously recognisable character in a great many films, including the likes of "Exorcist Master".
		To solve the mystery, Uncle Feng (Lam), a cop with experience and skills dealing with the otherworldly, is summoned.
		Feng is unfortunately partnered with Lam (Wilson Lam, also in the Stephen Chow vehicle "My Hero"), a youngster who is highly skeptical of all things supernatural and is more inclined towards flirting with the old man's daughter.

		Lam Ching Ying plays Master Kau, who seems to make a business out of vampire control and storage.
		Vampire is exorcist/vampire hunter (played by Lam Ching Ying), whose life takes a turn for the worse when a client refuses to stay dead!
		Instead, this hilarious supernatural comedy has a different kind of vampire -- the superstrong, zombielike "hopping vampire." And dealing with the hopping vampires are a long-suffering Taoist priest and his bumbling assistants, who add all sorts of wacky twists.

	DVD Times - Mr. Vampire
		Lam Ching-ying stars as Uncle Kau, a Taoist master who as a result of his work frequently comes into contact with various ghouls, ghosts and as the title suggests, vampires.
		As the film opens we initially come into contact with his two students, Sheng (Chin Siu-ho) who is the more skilled of the students and helps combat evil with his master, and Man Choi (Ricky Hui), the bumbling comedy sidekick of the two.
		I should also imagine that the majority of western audiences would find an added layer of humour within the portrayal of vampires, as their hopping nature is sure to raise a smile due to the bizarre appearance of it all!

	Hong Kong Cinema - Mr Vampire, Chin Siu Ho, Lam Ching Ying
		Both Yuen Wah and the late Lam Ching Ying get acting roles and provide the electric action choreography, plus Moon Lee plays the female lead after working with Sammo in Zu Warriors.
		Lam Ching Ying plays the long suffering Taoist priest, Uncle Ko, who has two mischievous students in Man Chor (Ricky Hui) and Chou Chun (Chin Siu Ho).
		The only disappointment will be the lack of Sammo himself adding to the fun, but maybe him taking the back seat allowed for some fresh impetus and ideas to create this winning recipe.
