Not sure whether or not we're supposed to feel for Kang. Certainly, great pains have been taken to illustrate his awful childhood and generally bad deal from life's hand. But, after the first gang rape in which he participates, that just didn't wash with me. Even though his parents detest him, and slap him when he tries to help or be nice. The opening scene is brief but very gory, as is the closing scene which leads up to it. There's a fair serve of full frontal nudity and sex scenes, including brief but luscious glimpses of Ga Ling (though she's nowhere near old enough to play any teenager's mother !). There's a moderate amount of drama in the police investigations and the unfolding of the story. Pretty average overall.

A mutilated nude body is found by a couple of joggers and a rascal, Kang, is chief suspect. Most of the film covers his life story in flashback, and the events which supposedly backgrouded his motives. Young Kang wagged school with friend Chi, and got offside with both his parents. With Dad, for wagging school, and with Mum for being instrumental in Dad catching her in bed with another. Both parents slap him while the fight. Mum leaves, and Dad sends Kang to boarding school. Things improve a little when he reaches 16. He's reunited with Chi, just back from the US. He invites Chi to stay, and they walk in on an apparently ordinary scene in Kang's lodgings, an orgy where his four gang mates are playing blind man's buff in the buff with two girls ! Also, a previous scene shows the gang to have committed a gang bang and attack on an innocent couple. Kang also meets a lovely and good girl, Kitty, and he woos her. One night, on her birthday, Kitty, Kang and Chi are drunk and going home, when two gwailos attack. Chi and Kitty both die, and Kang develops a hatred for gwailos. But, really, it seems all of society is against him. Almost everyone slaps him. The only ones who don't have just been killed. So, when the gang decide to attack/rape a gwailo couple, what might Kang do?
