Raped by an Angel (1993)

I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Admirable film.

A Masterpiece!

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

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 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.

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.

Now I know that box art can fool anyone, but why oh why did it have to be me? The main heroine of this film is pictured on the dvd sleeve as wearing a tight revealing leather coat with a small gun that looks like a walther ppk or something, whilst on the back is a picture of two girls wearing not much and holding some guns.I expected one of those cheap 70s-type explotation movies with guns with big...guns blowing away people...unfortuently the closest you get is a tv advert for all things, milk.Anyway the plot revolves around some psycotic rapist who, in his smart suit, rapes girls who buys his properties, and 'cleverly' gets away with his crime every time by giving the impression to all his neighbours that he and the raped girl are lovers.Anyway, the rest of the film is cheaply made, poorly edited and just plain boring...nothing happens, we just see vengenace of the main heroine on the bad guy, and that's it...She's never a naked killer, and its not what the box says. Avoid it.Overall: 0/10
