The Untold Story 2

Well if you have seen part one, you know a bit what to expect. The acting is good, especially the husband. The cousin is strikingly spooky in her own cute way. If you like naked women and dismemberment, check this one out, you will not be disappointed.

The Untold Story was a shocking and gory movie (plus, it had a memorable performance of Anthony Wong), it was successful enough to make producers invest in more CAT III films.

After 5 years since the original release of The Untold Story, Yiu-Kuen Ng directs this sequel in name only.

When i saw it for the first time, i was disappointed, since it didn't have much gore in comparison of the original (the only gore scene in this movie wouldn't go beyond the R-rating), when i watched it for the second time, i thought that it was a decent CAT III film. Like i said, the gore is toned down, but in The Untold Story II, the sexual content is boosted.

We get to see Anthony Wong, in this movie he plays a cop, i thought that his role was supposed to be nothing more than a glorified cameo, but he has many scenes, and his scenes are pretty fun to watch.

If you are looking for a gorefest, you will be pretty much disappointed, The Untold Story II was made when the trend of CAT III movies was declining, probably, because of the budget, the director didn't had a lot of ideas on how to shock the audience, but i found the movie to be entertaining.

First of all, this movie is not as extreme as it would like us to think! The actual gore is very limited, but that does not make this movie bad at all. I kept thinking about Audition during the last half of the movie, because of the psycho women in both movies and the torture of their lovers. The acting is fair and the direction ok.

Anthony Wong stars in both this and the original (far superior) Untold Story, but the similarities stop there. Wong doesn't reprise his role obviously, and instead plays a bumbling policeman who gets involved with a rather suspicious female, Fung (1994's Miss Singapore, Paulyn Sun) who's a repressed nut-job, sure. But her tame jealous "wanna be with a guy who's with a girl" killer is no where near as compelling as what Wong played in the first one. The movie itself seems tired and by the numbers. Yeung Fan as the physcho's love interest's unfaithful girl tries to keep one from total boredom by stripping down whenever possible, and Sun does have a nice ass, but even that can't save this dud.

My Grade: D

The story of a barbecue restaurant where the customers ends up eating human flesh. This is too simple of a description of this movie. It's done by the sexy beautiful wife of the restaurant owner, to few equally sexy friend of hers. Anthony Wong - a Hong Kong police officer finds himself in the middle of the crime, not suspecting what's really going on.

A psychotic wife of the barbecue restaurant owner goes out to revenge anyone who's belittled her - even to a point of killing them. Then she takes pleasure in watching the customers at her restaurant enjoying the flesh of the victims she's murdered.

It's a bit of a gore, but not that bad. The main focus seems to be the sexploitation of the victims, and the beautiful, and sexually charged wife of the restaurant owner. It's an intriguing story, and worth watching.

The movie is done beautifully, and is of high quality. All the actors really plays the part well. The story starts out quite normally, but takes a radical turn as events starts to unfold.

Honestly, maybe some of the victims deserved to be killed the way they did, for they were kind of poison to the society themselves. The advise is to stay away from people like them, so you don't have to go to this extreme.

A movie about situations that we all feel what this wife felt at few points in our lives, and serves as the release to the feelings that we have about them. Very Good.
