Writer/director Marco Mak fashions a chilling murder-mystery that also serves as a sardonic commentary on the modern-day dieting craze with his Hong Kong thriller, SLIM TILL DEAD. When a serial killer begins preying on the rail-thin participants of the
Slim Queen
beauty contest with an especially grisly calling card--starving his victims or amputating body parts until they reach the desired weight of 70 pounds--police detective Wong (Hong Kong leading man Anthony Wong, INFERNAL AFFAIRS) enlists the help of a beautician, Cherrie (Cherrie Yin), to crack the case with a twisted game of cat-and-mouse. The gruesome subject matter is balanced by elements of dark humor for an unusual horror-comedy hybrid with social overtones.

A lush, lyrical parable about the modernization of China, TEMPTRESS MOON is the story of Zhongliang (Leslie Cheung), a Shanghai gangster raised on the sumptuous rural estate of the powerful, opium-addled Pang family. As a boy, Zhongliang, promised the life of a student, becomes instead a servant for his sister and her drug-addicted husband and a playmate for Ruyi (Gong Li), the female heir to the Pang dynasty. A permanent outsider, Zhongliang escapes the painful decadence of the Pang household and becomes a smooth-talking mobster, seducing women in the jazz-saturated clubs of 1920s Shanghai, but he is forced to face his past when hired to seduce and abduct Ruyi in a criminal attempt to gain control over the now vulnerable Pang estate. What begins as a routine seduction becomes more complicated when Zhongliang finds himself unable to escape his true feelings for Ruyi and crippling memories of his painful childhood. Cinematographer Christopher Doyle revels in the eclectic visual spectacle of a tradition-bound China cracking and hatching its version of the jazz age. Li and Cheung turn in inspired performances, their palpable onscreen chemistry igniting director Chen Kaige's magnificently detailed historical epic.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 1.85:1Audio: TBDAdditional Release Material: TrailersInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus
