Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle A genuine crowd-pleaser, it's a far cry from Tsui Hark's more sedate historical epics of late, relying instead on bullets, breasts, and bloody mayhem to move the 90-mile-a-second plot line along. Rated: 3/5 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Daniel Mangin Bay Area Reporter [Clarence Fok's] flick is wilder, sleazier (in a charming sort of way) and more sexually democratic than [Basic Instinct]. May 27, 2020 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid A once in a lifetime hit for director Clarence Fok.

DanTheMan 2 A supercharged erotic action adventure combining elements of Nikita and Basic Instinct, Naked Killer unfolds the twilight existence of super sexy female assassins and their vendettas that remains stylish, ultraviolent and totally over the edge as one of the most infamous Category III films of all time. With hilarious performances and a deliciously sleazy tone, Naked Killer is as much about the action as it is about the sex. Director Clarence Yiu-leung Fok and writer Wong Jing (of course) create a freefall vision of delirious sado-eroticism with inventively titillating action set pieces that are guaranteed to hold your attention through all the penis-eating and ass-shooting. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/23/23 Full Review Audience Member "The Naked Killer" resembles the kind of violent, uninspired, pseudo-stylized erotica that plays after sundown on premium channels because that's what it is and probably all it would have ever been had this Hong Kong dud not resonated with Western audiences to the point it transcended into a cult classic overseas and gradually achieved a puzzling required viewing status. God help us all, dumpster divers Clarence Ford and Wong Jing have collaborated to bring you what only the kids will describe as lesbian assassin cinema at its finest. And you're likely to have a blast the first time around with the film's sexy marketing, cheesy technique, poorly translated subtitles, and a handful of sequences involving sexpots Chingmy Yau and Carrie Ng graphically punishing sexual predators for their sins. But that's just it: "The Naked Killer" is a one-time courtesy to the male ID with diminishing rewards after each subsequent viewing when cheap thrills really begin to feel more like cheap tricks. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member You would think a movie titled Naked Killer would have some nudity but that was not the case. Super soft core caressing and some sexual situations but no real nudity. That being said the Kung Fu was done really well and the women were in fact really hot, just don't piss off or mistreat any women around them because they are a team of assassins that kill scumbag guys. "Give me some scissors so I can cut this guy's plums off!", classic. A cop falls in love with one of the girls Kitty who gets into some trouble and has to change her identity. They bump into each other later in the movie and he is convinced it is her even though her name and fingerprints have been changed. Kitty's mentor wants her to kill the cop because she is afraid he will turn them in so she is torn between killing him or having to kill her. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member fuckin' dope. some of the nicest slices I've ever seen. the look, feel, and tone of this thing make it a great little find. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Watched this because of a bizzare set of circumstances including wanting to work on my Cantonese...turned out to be a pleasant surprise. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member What can I say except that the title and the art work says all you need to know about this sexy assassin classic from Hong Kong. I can't get enough of this film ever since I first saw it in '94. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
