Naked Killer 2

Advertised in some places as a sequel to NAKED KILLER, this is a much different film in style and tone but using some of the same principal cast members. NAKED KILLER had a joyful exuberance in its blackly comic tale of rival lesbian hitwomen. RAPED BY AN ANGEL is a much more grim tale of male/female relations both tender and brutal. In typical Hong Kong film fashion, the cute scenes of Yau and Yam dating are intercut with the brutality of prolonged rape in a parallel story. Like I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE, the multitude of violent rape scenes make this a repellent film viewing experience while also being fascinating in its shameless exploitation of rape as entertainment, despite the use of comic relief to make this more acceptable to a wider audience. While never eroticized, what this ultimately does is trivializes the act. The film is undeniably effective but just don't expect another NAKED KILLER even though Chingmy Yau gets to play another tough chick character. Well cast and slickly-lensed, this is not a film to watch on a first date.

Don't read the back of the DVD case, it outlines the whole film. The film is about Mr. Chuck (Mark Cheng), who prefers rough sex. Nam (the beautiful Chingmy Yau) spurns his advances at a party, so he befriends, then betrays her room mate Man (Jacqueline Ng). He rapes her but makes it look completely consensual, and is found not guilty by a court. He exacts revenge, then Nam does (again, the DVD case tells you how, I won't). The film is somewhat creepy and Mark Cheng is sleazy, which means he did his job fairly well. In many films, Chingmy Yau is eye candy mostly, but she gets to stretch her acting muscles a little here. Its good to see that, she was a big star at the time. The story has been told before and there are many "sequels" (I doubt they are true sequels, more just variations on this theme) but if you can handle it, its not bad. There is a little nudity in it, but its not per-se gratuitous.

This was originally titled "Raped by an Angel" but was later retitled "Naked Killer 2." The only thing in common with Naked Killer 1 is two of the cast members. No characters or story were carried forward. Just an attempt to make some money from fans of 1. But they did extend Raped by an Angel to #2-5.

A man gets off on rape even if simulated with his girlfriend. Even finally having her raped for real by a friend. Later he decides another woman seen in a TV commercial he wants to rape. She later charges him with rape but thru some devious planning he is found innocent in court. That's all I'll give away as the rest of the film is worth learning while watching.

This really could have been an excellent script. A lot was put into it especially with the rapist's planning. Unfortunately most of the first almost half of the film kind of drags along. After that is when it gets interesting. The cast was excellent so not to blame.

This is a Cat III Hong Kong film. There is rape, some violence, a little gore and limited nudity. Some scenes I found disturbing.

This is watchable but the first almost half is disappointing.

This film brings back Chingmy Yau (Kitty from Naked Killer), and it also goes by Naked Killer 2, but there is nothing similar. She is no longer "Kitty," but Yau Yuk-nam, who is being stalked by a rapist.

Her stalker (Mark Cheng) and his girlfriend (Linda Cheung) like to play rape, but he brings a friend in one night, who really rapes her. He then rapes her friend Chu (Jacqueline Ng), while she is gone with Tat (Simon Yam) After he beats the rap, things get very bloody as he takes revenge.

Yau plots a revenge of her own after Chu is not found.

Meanwhile, Cheng gets Tat out of the picture by seducing his ex and getting information for the police.

What he doesn't is that there is a big surprise waiting for him. He will get what he deserves.

I think it is better to see this as the first in a series (of five?) rather than a sequel to Naked Killer. Whilst having been made with much the same squad this a very different film and has led many to see it who wouldn't otherwise, hence the surprisingly low average core. This truly is a rape comedy and therein lies another problem, understandably for some viewers. Oh and the 'angel' of the title refers, I believe, to the mask worn at the start. Anyway despite or because of all that I love it and if you like sleazy cat3 films, you will too. Jaw dropping stuff all the way with lovely girls, fast action and sex, nudity and of course rape barely without pause. Even the brief police investigations and the court scenes are amusing. Not for everybody but what is?
