<P0-S0> Wu Ma made his screen debut in 1963, and with over 240 appearances to his name( plus 49 directorial credits within a fifty- year period), he was one of the most familiar faces in the history of Hong Kong Cinema and best known as the Taoist ghosthunter in" A Chinese Ghost Story". <P0-S1> Fung Wang- yuen( 22 September 1942 – 4 February 2014), better known by his stage name Wu Ma, was a Hong Kong actor, director, producer and writer. <SEP> <P1-S0> Directed, edited, co-written and co-produced by Ted V.
