In the line of duty 4

 


In the line of duty 4 (Yes Madam 4) starring Cynthia Khan (1989). 
Dickson Poon and Anthony Wong (not that one) on the keytar, ahem Keyboard, I am so there! 
According to HKMDB the sequels go in this order beginning with Yes Madam (1985), a vehicle starring Michele Yeoh, who does not appear in this feature.
 

Female super cop played by Cynthia Khan infiltrates a bunch of cartoonish gangsters loading things onto a freighter. Penny, code name "White Cat" finally reveals her name (in this dubbed version I watched) after an assortment of fights break out. The battle features lethal wrenches strung together that emit sparks. 


I'm emitting rainbow farts!


There’s a hardly a break between one fight and the next in this flick. I don’t recognize the actors besides Donnie Yen but they’re all believable and skilled brawlers.The cops all have color coded kitty cat names, which is just silly.

Next the head of the CIA shows up with a variety of firearms. I like how he announces his title to everyone present and then starts blasting away!

I was on TV once so I qualify to run Trump's CIA


There’s a scene where Richey played by Yuen Yat-Cho and Tommy ( Liu Kai-Chi) both snack on a loaf of Italian bread. It’s a minute of joyfullness just before a blood bath that includes a piece of furniture as a barricade.

Mama Mia, I dunka-dabread in dawine


 I don’t think you need to watch the first 3 films to understand this one they’re not linear and don't even star the same cast.

There’s a super cool Indiana Jones stunt copy on a moving vehicle with Penny-cat the female officer. Richey gets tortured in a freezer by more gangsters and almost dies of hypothermia. He bounces back real quick and has a negative of some kind that these terrorists want. I mean, there's a small thread of a story and it’s more about the ACTION! 

The actor who dubs Donnie Yen sounds extra proper and snobby. He sticks up for Richey by fighting a cackling white goofball who does those irritating Bruce Lee noises. I can't place who this actor looks like but it's somewhere between American Pie and a Kevin Smith turd. That same jerk dies at the police station and Donnie flees HK. A sunglasses wearing assassin with a huge blade gets into a fight in her and almost slices off Richey’s head. 

What annoying douche do I resemble huh Crank?

The dance like fight choreography is savage. Speaking of fights, Penny gets into a brutal one with a curly haired blonde who looks like Desus and Mero’s fav. pornstar Sara Jay. 


Soo HAWT!


People who are squeamish about violence toward women and such should probably not watch this! Penny gets smacked around by dudes quite often but she bites back hard! It's difficult to watch and the fighting is all choreographed masterfully but it's slightly misogynistic so be warned. The black dude from Tiger Cage shows up in a fight with Donnie Yen. I wonder if he was the inspiration for Jax in Mortal Kombat 2. This film is a stunt fueled thrill ride with impressive fighting. You've seen it before but it's seriously never boring (even if there's hardly a story at all)!

Just having a regular normal haircut!

Nude Vampire


Nude Vampire Dir by Jean Rollin ( La Vampire Nue,1970).

Come with me on a blood ritualistic journey where we shall delve into the dimension of the king of Lesbian vampirism Mr. Jean Rollin! 

A suicide cult headed by The Master, (no not the Manos the Hands of Fate one), who all wear Wickerman-eqsue animals masks mock in disapproval. One character in a chicken mask reminded me of a DEVO's video for "Love Not Anger". But the animal people win this time and carry a female away.

This Master is for Adults Only


This film has its own path and rhythm, for example belly dancers in makeup freakout to bongos.Wait it might all be a demented low-rent stage play! You should probably get under the influence fast to be at the same level as this thrill ride. It all was triggered by a suicide gunshot to the head. One character says "Go to where more mysteries await you"! We then are treated to a very long self masturbatory scene with actress Caroline Cartier’s frequently seen nude body.

Crown Royal bag makes a snazzy makeshift hood!


Nude Vamp gets all wacky with candelabras and comedy hijinx. A female walking slowly down a staircase nude with a see through outfit while holding a candelabra, Now we’re talkin! 
As for the thin plot line, it was never about the titular nude vampire at all really, it was all about the Son and his Daddy drama!

And TWINS!


Marie-Pierre Castel and her twin Catherine, the girls who appeared later in such classics as Lips of Blood (1975) and Shiver of The Vampires (1971) are thee best moments of this film, which is their debut. The only flaw I see was that there were hardly any queer indications besides light blood drinking. Other than that minor complaint Nude Vampire stands among Rollins phantasmagoric bests.


Is this the Nude Vampire?
