Dangerous Encounters Of The First Kind(1980) aka Di yi lei xing wei xian (1980)
IMDB
Plot:
Triad bosses moonlighting as dance club DJs, adolescent boys who need just a nudge to plunge into a life of crime, crazed Vietnam veterans who sever limbs without hesitation, a teenage girl whose desire to die is trumped only by her passion to wreak havoc on society: this is the world of Don't Play With Fire, where bombs go off in movie theaters and cats rot on steel spikes.
Tsui Hark's original version of this violent and bloody film was first banned, and then censored and recut to eradicate any unwanted political comments. Although politics were not completely excised, the film runs mainly on high testosterone. Like many Hong Kong films of the slasher genre, the story introduces graphic scenes of violence, including short scenes of actual animal torture. The plot centers around a group of teenagers who accidentally run over a man, an unhappy event that is witnessed by the warped animal hater, played by Lin Chun Shi. She blackmails the teenagers into sadistic acts, one of which inadvertently lands them with a pile of Japanese money claimed by the mob. From there, the teenagers fight off malevolent white guys who do not wield anything less than AK-47s. Outgunned and outnumbered, the teens seem doomed to extinction in great, bloody, graphic detail. If a political statement can be found in the saga of bad whites against Chinese teens, it certainly does not involve passive resistance. ? Eleanor Mannikka
Most nihilistic movie ever !
This one is a punk movie made by a young and (very) angry filmmaker, as dark as dark goes ; not one character is redeemable in this story where a bunch of amateurs killers suddenly brushes with the real stuff. The finale in the Hong Kong cemetery (already featured in John Woo's movies) is prominent remains breathtaking. A masterpiece, but be warned : this is strong stuff that grows up on you, the movie equivalent of music by Skinny Puppy, Korn or Nine Inch Nails. One of my favorite ever (It even was theatrically released in France as "L'enfer des armes" - "Hell by weapons", which describes it perfectly
