Another classic series movie - The Romancing Stars casted by many famous celebrities :) Surely everyone love to watch this movie back in the old time or even anytime when it is shows again in the tv... Stanley Fung never failed to makes me laugh so as Eric Tsang... Chow Yun Fat is a bit dull in this movie so as Natalis compare to the 2 others... But i was glad to see so many actresses appeared in this classic movie :) yeah~

This is one of an early production of Jeffrey Lau regarding the HK Ghost Stories series. Kinda like to watch this old film as you can see a lot of superstar when they are still young such as Jacky Cheong, Sandy Lam & Ricky Hui. But of course overall the storyline is only so so and you can tell that all of these series are the same...

I think this is quite a good movie although there's a bit changes from the novel. The tree devil should be a lady but it has become a drag queen in this movie, lolz~ and summore, the style which she sucks "Qi" with her long tongue is different also. Overall, its nice :) Love leslie cheung at that time, cute... and Joey is sexy~
