The plot line of "Lik Wong" is typically cliched prison movie fare which would be instantly forgettable if it wasn't for the brutally extreme, hyper-violent and fantastical blood-drenched delivery masterminded by director Lam Nai-choi. That delivery is hugely unrealistic and eye-poppingly gory - heads are crushed; bodies are chewed-up; stomachs are sliced open; faces and limbs are literally punched clean off. At one stage an opponent even tries to strangle Riki-Oh with his own intensities and in another scene Riki-Oh repairs the tendons in his own arm - with his teeth! Added to all this blood-soaked lunacy is comedy dialogue which is made even funnier by its (I presume deliberately) poor English dubbing. There is no character development; the prison seems to exist in its own hermetic world; the sets are poor; the acting is appallingly poor and the special effects are amateurish. All these would normally be hugely negative points for any film, but for "Lik Wong" they are neither here-nor-there disappearing, as they do, beneath a storm of outrageously stylised violence and an astonishing flood of blood and gore.
