Dr Lamb (1992) **

Directed by Danny Lee and Billy Tang. A shocking film about a serial killer. Its narrative structure became the model for countless other erotic thrillers made in Hong Kong - a suspect is arrested and the cops beat the crap out of him until he confesses, allowing for extended (and very explicit) flashbacks of the crime. This film contains many gruesome and violent sequences, but no sex or nudity. It's based on a true story of a demented taxi driver, Lam Gor Yu, responsible for killing young prostitutes. Box office: 13 million HK.
