Chinese Torture Chamber is a bizarre fantasy mixed with hilarious comedy, sex, and absurd torture. It features the classic sequence where the scholar goes on a journey through the forest, only to run into a man and his extremely horny wife who engage in a long bout of flying sex, complete with appropriately named martial arts moves such as invincible tongue and wonder screw . This scene is packed with wirework, slow motion shots, several gallons of ejaculate, and of course Elvis Tsui, who has the market pretty much
covered in this kind of role. Also starring Yvonne Yung and directed by Bosco Lam. Chinese Torture was produced by Wong Jing the mastermind behind Ebola Syndrome and The Untold Story. This film covers everything from Chinese martial arts movies to even a parody of the American film Ghost!
Customer Reviews
The nature of exploitation films is to make people believe that they’re seeing something serious, but in actuality it’s gross exaggerations and stereotypical characters mixed into a plot that can seamlessly show brutality, sex, fetishism, superpowers and kung-fu because they’re all “integral” to the storyline. They turn out (mostly years after their initial release) to be dated pieces of celluloid tripe that draw cult followings… look at “Blackula” or “Cleopatra Jones” if you need an example of how this is done in America with moniority populations.
“Chinese Torture Chamber Story” is no exception. One has only to look at this title to know that. C’mon, like the word “torture” *isn’t* inflammatory. Please…
Now for the confusing part: I like this film. I am one of those people who has seen this film and enjoyed it immensely. I’m sure if anyone knows anything about this film it’s the famous in-flight coitus scene that can be found on the ‘net for download. There are money shots that would kill people and a fabulous parody of “Ghost”.
In summary, I believe that many people will find this DVD offensive. Others will find it hysterical. Still others will find it at a friend’s house, borrow it and never give it back. You decide which one you are for yourself.
