Raped by an Angel 2: The Uniform Fan (1998)

Fantastic!

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Blistering performances.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

This movie is supposed to be a sequel to Raped by an Angel / Naked Killer 2 / Keung Gaan, and is significant in that it was made just a year after Hong Kong repatriation to China. While still produced by Wong Jin, none of the original casts are present in this supposed sequel. Surprise appearance is Athena Chu. She was playing the kind of role that the school girl was playing in this movie when she was younger. The title of the movie roughly translates to "Uniform's Seduction" which I'm not sure if the uniform is about the school girl's uniform or the nurse's uniform.About the movie: First of all, the voltage of the production has come down significantly compared to the movies made during the British Colonial days, and the caliber of acting has gone down considerably (if compared to Mark Chen, Simon Yam, and Chingmy Yau). The flamboyant style Wong Jin used to have is not seen here. Cinematography that used to be lavish, now looks like much smaller production. This trend continues into part 3 of this series. Maybe Wong Jin was tasked to train these new actors from the mainland. Who knows ? But in any case, if you came to expect a true sequel to Raped by an Angel, you may be disappointed.

OK, so the guy has a uniform fetish. Having seen large numbers of Asian schoolgirls in uniform on the Internet, I cannot imagine that to be too unusual. But this is a parody of fetish films, gangster films, and just about anything out that comes out of Hong Kong.Of course, rape and pedophilia, and murder are not usual subjects for comedy.Francis Ng has just been released from jail and is a loser gangster who is in love with a cop (Athena Chu). Her underage sister (Yeung Fan) is being sought by the dentist (Joe Tak-Chung Ma). Of course, once she is busted down to uniform duty, he wants her, too.Blood, drilling, rape, extreme violence.

It would seem from my notes that I was a little more swept away by this when originally seen on video. This probably says more about a subsequent increased exposure to Eastern movies than be a particularly pertinent comment on this film. This is, it is still hard to believe a romantic comedy, rape and revenge slasher with remarkably just about the same emphasis on each element. I didn't find the comedic moments quite so funny this time but it is amusing. What I did find this time was that the would be wooer and big boss gets just a little irritating in his on and on attempts to get together with the leading lady. There is of course irony here in that she much prefers the clean cut, smooth talking gentleman who of course turns out to be the real baddie. The middle aged mum with a 'past' and ever ready for action is great, some scenes are super sexy and some wincingly difficult (household drill in the mouth!) and now I'm wondering if I've been a little unfair with my score. Bah! How am I expected to review the un-reviewable?

Raped by an Angel 2 is the tale about a demented Dentist that stalks a policewoman's(Athene Chu) schoolgirl sister. The dentist loves young girls in uniform and spins a complex plot just to get his surgical mitts on her. Thrown into the mix is a lovable rascal (Francis Ng) and his sickly sidekick bump into the inspector during her shift. Francis becomes smitten by Athene and tries to court her. He bumps into the Dentist and the two have an immediate dislike for each other. The Dentist becomes friendly with the schoolgirl when she visit's his office. That's when the fun begins. The two women live with there middle-aged Aunt who's very wise and becomes a sage for the man characters.Wong Jing's script is good as usual and his protégé Aman Chang is adapt as a filmmaker. Mr. Wong is sort of a George Lucas of Parody/Schlock. This movie is a must see for any fan of the Hong Kong genre and lovers of a good parody. The ending is a real hoot!!Highly Recommended.
