Why did "zombie leader" Ching-Ying Lam die young?

Lin Daochang? It's really a memory of generations. Speaking of Hong Kong movies in the 1990s, apart from love, police and brothers, there is another kind of movies that are different but very popular, that is, zombie movies. Since the 1980s and 1990s, all kinds of zombie movies have been remake and remake, but classics are classics, which are hard to surpass. I'm afraid only some zombie films written by Ching-Ying Lam can be called classics.

As an excellent director and actor, Ching-Ying Lam pioneered ghost films. His role as a Taoist is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and has become an iconic figure in Hong Kong movies, which no one can surpass so far. Ching-Ying Lam started out as a little actor, but then by chance, Ching-Ying Lam became a martial arts coach. So, which martial arts action stars did Ching-Ying Lam know during his time as a martial arts coach?

Ching-Ying Lam used to be Bruce Lee's martial arts instructor. In the 1960s and 1970s, Ching-Ying Lam was basically the martial arts director of Bruce Lee's action films. After the death of Bruce Lee in 1970s, Ching-Ying Lam was invited by Sammo Hung to be the martial arts instructor of Hongjiaban for several years.

What really made Ching-Ying Lam popular overnight was not being an actor or a martial arts coach, but the popularity of 1985 "Mr. Zombie", which made Ching-Ying Lam, who was both a director and a leading actor, popular. Then, Ching-Ying Lam seems to have explored the theme films needed by the film and television industries. In the following 10 year, he started shooting zombie movies crazily, but few of them really became popular. It was not until 10 years later, that is, 1995, that the classic zombie master made Ching-Ying Lam angry again.

Watch the time. The year of Zombie Master was 1995, and Ching-Ying Lam died two years later, that is 1997. Many netizens said, Ching-Ying Lam's death is? Jealous of talent? But I always think it's importune. Because Ching-Ying Lam was ill, after years of hard work, he finally exhausted himself. For Ching-Ying Lam, it is perhaps the most gratifying thing to see his works come back into fashion in his lifetime!

In fact, Ching-Ying Lam was already unwell at the beginning of 1997, but he was keen on making movies. Even when his illness deteriorated to coughing up blood, he still insisted on filming and showed a very spiritual side in front of the camera. Later, when he learned that he was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer, he broke up with his girlfriend King-Tan Yuen voluntarily, so as not to delay her life.

The reason why Ching-Ying Lam suffers from liver cancer is that he has the habit of drinking and is addicted to alcohol. He drank too much from time to time, and eventually injured his liver and caused liver cancer, so that his condition was irreversible. 1997165438+1October 8th, Ching-Ying Lam died in Hongkong!

Ching-Ying Lam's death is really a great loss for horror movies, and there are no classic zombie movies since then. Although Ching-Ying Lam has been dead for several decades, some classic zombie films he shot before his death did not go with him, which is a kind of memory for Lin Daochang.
