Heung Gong kei on: Keung gaan

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.

sleazy film, very cheaply made. beware: the film is notorious for it's graphic sex/rape scenes, which are CUT OUT on the english release on the "made in hong kong" label.

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

I actually watched NAKED KILLER 2 before the first film, but that's no great shakes given that it's a thematic rather than direct sequel; the characters are different here. The alternate title for this is RAPED BY AN ANGEL, and it's also a film that spawned a long-running series; the title gives you some idea what to expect of the subject matter.

The surprising thing about NAKED KILLER 2 is that it's not bad at all. For a film with a rapist as a central character, it's fairly densely plotted, with interesting supporting characters and some well-handled courtroom drama interludes. Not what I was expecting from a scuzzy rape-revenge thriller. Part of this success may be down to director Andrew Lau, who would later handled the INFERNAL AFFAIRS trilogy amongst many other movies.

This was the third title of a 'Babes and Bullets' box set I picked up, the other two films being the disappointing EVIL INSTINCT and THE HUNTRESS: HER NAME IS CAT. NAKED KILLER 2 is a much better film than either of those, although it's worth noting that the UK edition extensively cuts out all of the rape sequences. I don't much like watching depictions of rape anyway so it was no great loss. Simon Yam has a fine supporting role as a romantic Triad while Chingmy Yau grabs all of the attention as the kick-ass lead. As usual for a Hong Kong thriller, there are bad taste elements, lots of sex but little nudity, jolting edits between romance and rape, some cool action, and a general high energy feel to the piece.

This was originally titled "Raped by an Angel" but was later retitled "Naked Killer 2." The only thing in common with Naked Killer 1 is two of the cast members. No characters or story were carried forward. Just an attempt to make some money from fans of 1. But they did extend Raped by an Angel to #2-5.

A man gets off on rape even if simulated with his girlfriend. Even finally having her raped for real by a friend. Later he decides another woman seen in a TV commercial he wants to rape. She later charges him with rape but thru some devious planning he is found innocent in court. That's all I'll give away as the rest of the film is worth learning while watching.

This really could have been an excellent script. A lot was put into it especially with the rapist's planning. Unfortunately most of the first almost half of the film kind of drags along. After that is when it gets interesting. The cast was excellent so not to blame.

This is a Cat III Hong Kong film. There is rape, some violence, a little gore and limited nudity. Some scenes I found disturbing.

This is watchable but the first almost half is disappointing.
