Holding a fetus hostage in Devil’s Woman
Though not nearly as offensive as Category III's more famous shockers, Devil's Woman contains one ridiculous and repulsive scene worthy of a jaw drop.
Hong Kong’s worst judge
So I know I've used Mondo Exploito's Clip of the Week articles as a bit of an outlet for my love of horrible English speaking actors appearing in Asian films and I've absolutely bombarded you with clips, but I really do think this one takes the cake.
Diary of a Serial Killer (1995)
Diary of a Serial Killer is only interested in getting two things out of its audience: titillation and revulsion. It achieves both with admirable success.
Sex ed, Hong Kong style
I'm surprised that this is my first Clip of the Week post to feature ridiculous Hong Kong sex comedy Screwball '94. Below is a scene that I think sums of the level of intelligence the film is playing with — a brain-dead scene of sex education and bread rolls.
Her Vengeance – Thai poster
Ngai Choi Lam's Her Vengeance — in its proper uncut form — is about as out of control as rape-revenge films come. Its native Hong Kong poster doesn't quite capture its chaotic brilliance, so I'll hand things over to Thailand.
Calamity of Snakes (1983)
Calamity of Snakes is a strange beast. On the one hand, it's kind of incredible with scene after scene of amazing set-pieces, but then you remember that you're watching hundreds upon hundreds of snakes being massacred and you start to feel depressed.
A conversation about dicks
This week's clip is an intimate discussion about dicks. Not only does this scene warn us against the dangers of "nutritious soup", it brings up that age old dilemma of whether you can put a computer inside a penis.
Orgy gone wrong
Erotic Ghost Story is not high art. It is, however, solid CAT III entertainment with plenty of laughs, nutty effects, and Amy Yip's famous cans. Below is my favourite scene — an orgy prank that ends with corpses and milky vomit.
Pituitary Hunter – Thai poster
It has been far too long since we've featured a wacky Thai poster. Please accept this insane Thai poster for Category III curio Pituitary Hunter as an apology.
Love in Sampan (1992)
Domestic abuse, forced marriage, alcoholism: these are the erotic themes of Dik On's sole directorial effort, Love in Sampan. Yes, I think this is about as bleak as softcore sex gets.
Daughter of Darkness II (1994)
This is a stupid, stupid film. Along with the original, it's one of the few films I'd describe as pure evil. Pure, stupid evil. In other words, Daughter of Darkness II is a must see film.
Airborne horse dick!
Sex and Zen is a great film. It's funny and nicely shot, it sports a solid cast (which includes Amy Yip's elusive side-boobs), and, most importantly, its main plot revolves around a small-dicked character who has his penis replaced with a horse's cock.
