Chik juk ging wan

This is another Hong Kong movie that it got the infamous CAT III certificate, obviously the CAT III rating was given because of the rape scenes and the graphic violence and bloody images.

This was directed by Ivan Lai (director of Daughter of Darkness), the movie features some good sound design and camera work.

Obvisiouly, you want to see a CAT III flick for the sleaze and violence, well we have sleaze and lots of it, which it's most focused on the rape scenes, the rape scenes are not trying to be disturbing or disgusting, but arousing (that kind of stuff that will shock the censors).

Unfortunately, the movie doesn't go far with the gore, we just see the bloody aftermaths.

Unlike many other serial killer CAT III movies, the killer of this movie is a metro sexual, with a leg fetish.

A sadistic killer with the penchant for female legs is murdering women.A female cop Cheng Hsuen(played by Jade Leung)becomes the killer's unwitting target after he catches her(or more precisely,her legs) on camera during a gun battle.The murderer boldly enters her life,stalking her at work and hiding out in her home,before eventually kidnapping and assaulting her sister.A distraught Hsuen is forced to take the law into her own hands and sets out for justice,using the killer's infatuation with her as bait to lure him in."The Peeping Tom" is a fantastic HK Cat.III fare filled with sleaze and brutal violence.The rape scenes are quite unpleasant to watch,but the film is stylishly made and twisted enough for my liking.There is also a fair amount of nudity on display,including an incredibly long shower scene,so I wasn't disappointed in that aspect too.Give this one a look.

Director Ivan Lai, who has helmed his share of sleaze classics (DAUGHTERS OF DARKNESS 1 + 2), tries real hard to exploit maximum capital from every gory, perverted, bullet-ridden moment of this highly recommended thriller.

It's a fetishist's wet dream. The gorgeous women of the cast all wear short skirts and we get plenty of opportunities to see up them. The rape scenes are as graphic as possible within the rating category. The opening sequence, in which a pretty young maiden is kidnapped, raped and dismembered, is a real keeper. Also worth noting is the music and sound design.

There is a gleeful amorality about Lai's films, a nod (intentionally or unintentionally?) to Japanese "violent pink" cinema of the 70's and 80's.

The modus operandi of rapist Roy Chen Chih-Lai does not really wash, but that is not the point of this film. The point is gleeful sensationalism of gutter-level subject matter.

There is a strong erotic undercurrent and leading lady Jade Leung is pretty damn cute and pretty damn feisty as a police detective on the rapist's blood-spattered trail. Miho Nomoto, a Japanese actress who plays Jade's sister, turns in a terrific masturbation scene that pushes the boundaries of the rating.

Although it doesn't maintain the style and pace its opening stanza establishes, it is still righteous, unapologetic sleaze.

The movie is about a manic rapist and murderer who falls for a female police officer and stalks her and her family members. Acting of Mark Cheng who plays the role of rapists/murder is superb. Screenplay is ok. Acting of the support staff is ok. A good c grade thriller

That's what updating a classic thriller (this is loosely based on the 1960 film by Michael Powell) Hong Kong style looks like.

Mark Chen is the nutcase getting his kick of murdering young women with pretty legs and filming his deeds (of course, raping the victims before comes quite natural). Jade Leung (of "Black Cat" fame) is the young policewomen whose paths accidentally cross with those of the killer. He falls in love with her, infiltrates her life and preys on her sister and her lover.

For a HK Cat. III thriller this has a rather straightforward story, fine acting by the leads, and very stylish direction. Atmospheric, violent (to a certain degree - there are much more violent Cat. III movies) , erotic - highly recommended to all fans of modern Hong Kong moviemaking.
