A serial murderer has brutally killed several policemen and their pregnant wives. After a quick investigation, the murderer is revealed to be Kit, whom the case’s detective-in-charge knows from a previous case. Once upon a time, Kit was an innocent boy in a rural village who also has a crush on naïve high school student Wing. After the death of Wing’s grandmother, Kit rescues Wing from a foster care facility, and the two quickly fall in love. However, their romance ends prematurely when a local policeman arrests them. The events that follow lay the seeds for Kit’s terrifying path to vengeance.

Viewing Notes

FF2011 Day Two: Film #5 - took this as my midnight screening and it definitely kept me awake. Brutal film. I’m glad Sola Aoi is getting more legitimate work as an actress but kinda sad that HK has to call out to an JAV idol for a role that has considerable nudity and rape. But even dubbed she’s still quite great. Tough film to watch but effective. Another highlight so far.
