Heung Gong kei on: Keung gaan

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.

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.

"Raped by an Angel", also known as "Naked Killer 2" is a formulaic Hong Kong sex-and-violence movie. It is not as good as many others. The acting is wooden, the violence muted and unrealistic, the consensual sex scenes dull and devoid of even the slightest hint of passion, and you can almost see the actors yawning during the rape scenes. This is supposed to be a sex-violence-revenge thriller, but the plot is thin and devoid of suspense. The only interesting part was a courtroom scene in which the rapist is one of the lawyers. The movie has a category III rating (equivalent to our NC17) but is pretty tame by Cat-III standards. The several rape scenes dubbed "explicit" and "prolonged" in some other reviews are neither. They consist mostly of seeing the naked backside of the rapist standing up (briefly), seeing him leer as he unwraps a condom, and then seeing what is supposed to be a look of pain on a closeup of the woman's face, but actually looks more like indigestion. The rapes themselves are implicit, and hidden by potted plants, furniture, and blankets. The English subtitles are below average even for a Hong Kong quickie, and provide most of the comic relief.

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.

I think it is better to see this as the first in a series (of five?) rather than a sequel to Naked Killer. Whilst having been made with much the same squad this a very different film and has led many to see it who wouldn't otherwise, hence the surprisingly low average core. This truly is a rape comedy and therein lies another problem, understandably for some viewers. Oh and the 'angel' of the title refers, I believe, to the mask worn at the start. Anyway despite or because of all that I love it and if you like sleazy cat3 films, you will too. Jaw dropping stuff all the way with lovely girls, fast action and sex, nudity and of course rape barely without pause. Even the brief police investigations and the court scenes are amusing. Not for everybody but what is?
