Ebola - brief
29 November 2014
Somewhere, this tasteless, trashy, over the top, gleefully perverse Hong Kong Cat 3 masterpiece is flying off the shelves. Anthony Wong may be best known as the villain in Hard Boiled or Untold Story, but for sheer sleazy glory, this one is in a category all by itself. Without giving too much away, after he rapes his boss's wife, then kills her and his boss, lowly cook flees to Africa. There is a massive outbreak of ebola, so he and a buyer drive to an infected village to buy dead cows cheap. Blinded by lust, the cook jumps a corpse and catches the incurable. Only, instead of dying, he becomes a carrier. As soon as he realizes that, sharing time begins. Hong Kong bad boy director, Herman Yau, made many films like this, but this exploitative jewel is the best.
