The actress has to throw up living centipedes...
14 January 2001
This obscure Hong Kong-horror has everything one could expect from it: Cult rituals from an evil priest or something like that, an evil curse which makes the female protagonist throw up crawling centipedes (and not fake ones, of course), some martial arts and lots of more or less intentional humor.

The video version I saw had no English subtitles, so I couldn't follow the dialogue; nevertheless the story seemed easy to follow, the pictures spoke for themselves. In one scene, an actress throws up scorpions (but I don't think she really threw them up; that would be too dangerous for her, wouldn't it), and, as already mentioned, the climax includes the cursed woman to let centipedes crawl out of her mouth before she throws them up, and she throws up many of them. At least this scene is EXTREMELY disgusting; I myself began to choke a little bit watching it.

Typical Hong Kong-horror, not for the easily disgusted.
