He even enlists the aid of a drunken Taoist ghostbuster (Wu Ma) to save Sian and rout the evil demon. Romance blossoms, and Ning resolves to help Sian. But Sian is a ghost bound to the netherworld, and worse, her master is a soul-sucking tree demon with an extremely long tongue! Ning is slated to become the demon's next meal, but some humanity remaining in Sian compels her to keep him alive. Instead of obviously grotesque creatures, Ning meets an enchanting maiden named Sian (the ethereal Joey Wang). Producer Tsui Hark and director Ching Siu Tung join forces for A Chinese Ghost Story, a wildly entertaining supernatural action-comedy-romance-horror-swordplay film that's as classic as Hong Kong Cinema gets! Ning (Leslie Cheung) is a mousy tax collector who spends a night in a supposedly haunted villa.
