Ebola Syndrome

After making a stir in Hong Kong with their 1992 gross-out fest Untold Story, director Herman Yau Lai-to and star Anthony Wong Chau-sang team up once again for this Category III exploitation extravaganza. The film opens in 1986 with psychopath Wai (Wong) brutally murdering three people and then skipping town for South Africa. Ten years later, Wai is working as a dishwasher in a third-rate Chinese restaurant. While out at the market looking for pigs, he rapes a tribal woman infected with the Ebola virus, becoming a carrier. As his sickness becomes more manifest, he grows ever more bizarre and dangerous. After beheading his boss, he rapes and murders the guy's wife. Then in a gruesome display of culinary inspiration, he makes the corpses into Ebola laced steamed buns. As an epidemic gathers steam, Wai flees back to his native Hong Kong to spread his disease there.
