"Cut-and-paste" transformation of Taiwanese movie "The Anger" (1982; directed by Richard Chen Yao-Chi) with new Hong Kong footage.
A young woman is released from prison, after serving an eight-year sentence for murder, and wishes to start her life over. Getting a job at a newspaper through a friend, she tries to settle in despite the pressures of being an ex-convict. When bizarre incidents begin to occur both at work and at home, the woman suspects that someone has a vendetta against her. NOTE: This is the 1985 IFD (Godfrey Ho & company) re-edit (with English dubbing) of Karen Yang Taiwanese thriller, Exposed to Danger.
When watching the first half of this movie, I first thought that this movie was too long for it's own good, but soon found out that the director wanted to show the brutal calculating schemes of the killer. If you cans it through the first hour and a constant disturbing dark mood, then you'll understand the movie better as everything come stogether in a gory showdown.
Sun Ya-fang, a freshman from college, is wooed by her schoolmates Chen, a boastful and frivolous playboy, and Yang, an introvert, who is simple and honest. Yang's sister teaches him to adopt a more aggressive approach towards Sun. Perturbed by his advances, Sun deflects Yang's attention towards her classmate, Sung. Meanwhile, Sun's cousin, George, returns from abroad and further complicates the situation. Sun falls for George, who is more interested in Sung.
