1996 | Director: Herman Yau | Chinese | IMDBThis movie follows Kai San, A psychopathic loser wanted for committing a triple homicide ten years ago in Hong Kong. Now hiding out in South Africa, he works a job at a restaurant where he has to do all of the tasks nobody else wants to. One day on an outing to buy cheap pigs from a Zulu tribe, he sees a topless tribal woman pass out by a river bed. He decides to try and help her, but after he realizes that “her tits are huge”, he rapes her instead. From this he contracts the Ebola virus, sending him on a murderous and infectious rampage.
This movie has everything you want from an exploitation flick. Inventive gore, explicit rape and sex scenes, and even a man fucking raw meat. Its so mean and exploitative that if I didn’t know any better, I would have thought this was from the 70’s. In fact its so over the top that its almost comical. Even though its not the type of film you would demand it from, the cinematography and acting are solid, and the characters are colorful and well rounded (some of the girls are particularly "well rounded" if you catch my drift). Most films this trashy and despicable are very poorly made and have little to no effort put into the plot, but this film has a very serviceable story. It kinda slows down a bit towards the end, but its still well worth a watch, especially if you’re a fan of mindless exploitation.
