Screen actress Li Ching - star of countless Shaw Brothers Studios’ films. Ching passed of unknown/undisclosed causes earlier this year (February 22, 2018) at the age of 69. She’s not to be confused with Ching Li, another Shaw Brothers star who passed in December 2017.

The Web of Death (1976)

My rating: 7/10

Absolutely ludicrous melodrama involving magicians, sword fights, and a magical glowing tarantula that spits poison gas and electric webbing while trumpeting like an elephant. The sets, while beautiful, are very noticeably fake, which just adds to the general weirdness.

So yes, this is not, objectively, a good movie, but it is pretty entertaining.
