Tinam is the cop on the case searching for the person who keeps killing Hong Kong men and cutting off their genitals. Tinam is on the edge of a breakdown after he accidently shot his brother three months before. When nervous, the cop throws up. Tinam meets Kitty, an obsessive woman, in a unisex hair salon. Unfortunately for Tinam, Kitty takes a shine to him. Kitty, after shooting up a gangster's office to avenge her father's death, is taken to the home of hit-woman Sister Cindy, a charmer who uses rapists for martial arts practice dummies. Sister Cindy becomes Kitty's mentor. It is soon discovered the killer is the lesbian Princess, Cindy's former student. Princess is contracted to kill her teacher and she succeeds. The distraught Kitty, forgoes her pursuit of Tinam, and begins her revenge. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Jeffrey M. Anderson, Combustible Celluloid
A once in a lifetime hit for director Clarence Fok.
-
Walter Chaw, Film Freak Central
Cheapo knock-off trash.
-
Dan Lybarger, Nitrate Online
The ultimate guilty pleasure, unrepentently sleazy and endlessly fun.
-
KJB, IGN Movies
Bad subtitles, lesbian contract killers and an impotent cop. Not much more you could ask for in a movie.
-
Marc Savlov, Austin Chronicle
A genuine crowd-pleaser, it's a far cry from Tsui Hark's more sedate historical epics of late, relying instead on bullets, breasts, and bloody mayhem to move the 90-mile-a-second plot line along.
