 |  |  |  |  Another Hong Kong black magic movie that always teaches the valuable lesson "never harm the loved ones of Southeast Asian sorcerers, you always wind up in a gory mess if you do"; and this one delivers on the gore and zaniness. One of the best scenes involves a man literally becoming a 'dickhead'. But most importantly, the movie stars Ellen Chan, who looks beautiful and gets naked--hey what are Cat III movies for? | | LOG IN TO COMMENT ON THIS REVIEW! |

| THE ETERNAL EVIL OF ASIA: Well, you can guess from the title that it's gonna' be a horror movie, but what does that really mean to us... oh, it's gonna' be another of those wonderful Chinese Category 3 flicks that dish out a heaping helping of explicit rape sex scenes, colorfully crimson covered outrageous gore, and loads of that eye-pleasing exploitation and vividly violent abuse towards women that we have come to love and desperately expect to see in the "Shock Cinema of Asia". Ah, it just warms the heart, doesn't it?! Anyway, this tale of Chinese supernatural spookiness stars the enchanting ELLEN CHAN (man-o-man, would she please do porn!) and LILY CHUNG (that poor tormented sweetheart from RED TO KILL and DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS) as hapless victims (once again) caught up in a mysterious web of chaotic black magic and supra-creative cult style killings. May's (ELLEN CHAN) boyfriend, Bon and his buddies travel from Hong Kong to Thailand while on vacation. There they get mixed up with some local gang action during their stop at a casino and have to make a break for it into the countryside. After loosing the perusing gang members, they stumble upon a practicing warlock who's about to do battle with a rival wizard. The two fight it out and in a scene that has to be witnessed to be fully appreciated for it's truly exploitive nature (the rival wizard has sexual intercourse with his female cohort while floating through the air to activate his black magic spells). But when it's all said and done, our group's buddy warlock defeats the bad wizard and the bunch celebrate. During this time, the warlock's daughter meets and falls in love with May's boyfriend. He declines her sexual advances (something I certainly couldn't do) so she convinces her father to place a spell on him so they can get together and make babies. Well, the spell goes bad, actually affecting his 3 friends instead, and they all rush about to get a little nookie from the warlock's daughter. And you guessed it, she's violated and raped repeatedly and finally manages to get herself impaled on a knife while trying to defend her private no-no spots from prying paws. As expected, the warlock becomes enraged and commences to off the group one by one in nifty, super juicy, cult-like magical ways. One of the sorry-ass bastards is forced to feed on his own flesh, cannibal style, and ends up eating himself to death (literally that is) as another has nails forced into his face and skull (ala Clive Barker's Hellraiser pain-addict Cenobite Pinhead) and not to mention, one of them is cursed to see people as undead monsters that promptly causes him to slay everyone he meets and in the end, himself as well. But that's not enough for our pissed off warlock. He has to make things even by raping Bon's girlfriend May, and again, in another enjoyable exploitive sex scene, we see the deliciously beautiful ELLEN CHAN hoisted high into the air, stripped of her clothes (finally), and raped by a semi-transparent ghost-like figure over and over. Needless to say, it's great mental mayhem, murderous fun, and lovely deviance that ONLY the Chinese can come up with. One last example to prove this point is when the warlock curses one of the guys for being a "dick head". The poor fella's head actually turns into a giant penis (with eyes and a mouth, no less) and he runs around pissing from the top of it when he gets frightened. Hmmm... it must something in the water over there because you WON'T see these kinds of things anywhere else. I'd be willing to bet you on that too! |
