Naked Killer (1992)

Directed by: Clarence Fok

Starring: Simon Yam, Chingmy Yau, Carrie Ng

Featuring: Madoka Sugawara, Wai Yiu, Ken Low

A mysterious rash of assassinations is plaguing Hong Kong. Simon Yam plays a shell-shocked cop investigating the cases, which are marked by their extreme brutality (you know, fun stuff like missing parts!). At the same time, a young woman (Yau) is “adopted” by an old assassin after Yau attempts to get revenge for her father’s death. The assassin begins teaching Yau the tricks of the trade and she becomes quite a good worker, rivaling the “real” killer (Ng) in her viciousness. Yam eventually begins piecing the puzzle together, only to fall in love with Yau. This spells trouble for the both of them, since Ng is still on the loose and quite pissed off.
