Plot
About this military trainer who were newly recruited to train a bunch of lazy soldiers. Not only were these soldiers lazy, they were into all form of vices: prostitution, gambling, drinking etc etc. So when he came, he whipped them real hard and eventually they turned over a new leaf. But the new change was not welcomed by the local thug who also owns the prostitute and gambling houses. After several warnings and pressure from his superiors, the trainer decided to revoke his command in barring all soldiers from vices.
But then hor, by then the soldiers were all very "guai" already and instead of performing immoral activities, they prefer playing "tarik tali" in the camp. So this angered the local thug even more... now comes to gory bit:
This local thug has a close connection to one of the powerful eunuch. So as a revenge, they abducted this local trainer's son by force and named him one of the potential young eunuch to be castrated. Poor boy was locked in a dungeon where 2 "ah gua" looking males castrate them one by one. When the local trainer went to see his son, they performed a sample castration in front of him. Altho they didn't specifically show how and where they cut... it was gory enough...
- One boy is to be castrated at one time
- There's this wooden plank that they are tied to (with metal chains)
- And they are striped naked
- A fat white candle is then inserted into the poor boy's mouth... so that there is something for him to bite on to prevent him from accidentally biting off his own tongue (after the whole ordeal, the candle remains were all over the boy's body in a pool of shit like liquid - too much pressure from biting)
- Then the "ah gua" will hold on to his private part and poooooop, blood scatters everywhere followed by a loooooooong wail from the poor boy and he's considered castrated
So anyway, the poor local trainer went and begged the eunuch to release his only son and needless to say, he was turned down immediately. But then that's when the local thug came in and said that he will release the trainer's son provided that this local trainer resigns from his post and leave the town forever. The trainer agreed immediately but there was another condition! His son will only be returned to him 4 days later at an inn (out of town) to prevent him from rebelling. Unfortunately 4 days later, when they returned his son, his son was already castrated.
So mad with fury, he went into town and started his killing spree all along looking for the bad local thug. They proceeded to fight and fight with blood splattering all over and things being broken along the way. But in the end, the trainer gave the local thug his own medicine...
- First he broke all the bones in his body
- Then he dragged him to the dungeon where his son was castrated
- After tying him to the wooden plank, he aimed his sword at the thug's private part
- By now, the poor thug was already screaming and begging away
- And eventually started peeing in his pants
- But the trainer did what he set out to do, he castrated the thug himself
Along the story, they also showed how prostitutes were abused:
- Prostitutes were forced to drink some herbal concoction to abort their child, regardless of whether they consent or not
- Or how they were beaten, raped and killed when they angered the local thug
So anyway, all in all I would say that this movie fits the 18PL category perfectly. In fact if there is a rating of 10 for violence, sex and the combination of both, this movie will get 10 out of 10 and would most probably rank no.1. Definitely not a movie for the entire family and definitely not something I want to watch again!
