In the mood to torture yourself
or others? That might be the only reason to watch this Hong Kong film, which features
a lesbian couple with the worst of stereotypes. Amy wants a child and sleeps with
a male co-worker (Tai Yu Michael Dao) to get pregnant. Then she decides she likes
the sex and might want to marry the guy. You know ... all she needs is a good
man. Girlfriend Ann (Ellen Chan) becomes possessive, telling Amy that she
belongs to her and won't live without her. Ann demands a suicide pact, but only
Amy is successfully poisoned and dies. Egads. So Ann goes on a murderous
rampage, killing Amy's boyfriend and other men who come on to her. Then she seduces
the male detective, enjoying the sex, of course. Need I say more about the horrible
stereotypes here? I don't mind spoiling that she ends up killing herself as well. Lots
of sleazy porn-like music, panting and groaning. The acting, script and attempts
at humor during the numerous anything-but-subtle het sex scenes are just atrocious.
Stay away at all costs! They really believe what the title says.
