This was the first Category III Hong Kong movie I ever saw. It features all the cheap special effects of a low budget period exploitation film, but contains non-stop sex until about halfway through when the sex, er...stops. The most memorable scene involves a naked woman and her close friendship with a big loofer. The rest is more valuable for its demonstration to the Cat III film in its earliest form - simple hijacking of established genres with added nudity, and its a forerunner of period romps such as 'Sex and Zen' and 'Erotic Ghost Story'. Also notable for a starring role for Emily Chu, who plays Leslie Cheung's wife in John Woo's 'A Better Tomorrow' films.
