Director Billy Chung serves up sleaze and violence aplenty in this stylishly-shot revenge thriller starring Daniel Wu as a deformed hit-man who is double-crossed by sexy gangster's moll Gigi Lai. After a quick spot of plastic surgery, our once ugly killer is transformed into a suave handsome hunk hell-bent on getting even.
Chung gives fans of this kind of trash cinema (and I use that term affectionately) exactly what they want. There is enough gratuitous sex and violence throughout the film's lean 87 minute running time to ensure that the viewer is never bored; there are gunfights galore, with every bullet hit squirting just the right amount of claret, and in between the bouts of death and destruction there is still time for the main characters to 'get it on'.
If an undemanding slab of glossy exploitation is what you're after, you could do worse than see Devil Face, Angel Heart.
