Tagline: There Is Only What You Believe.
Plot: In Taipei, the teeming modern capital of Taiwan, a corporate CEO freezes to death on a steaming hot day. Then, the notorious mistress of a politician burns to death in a room untouched by flames. The coroner (Yang Kwei-Mei) discovers two bizarre and grizzly links - a mysterious fungus imbedded in the brains of the bodies, and signs that both died in a hallucinatory state.

A good watch. Not your typical serial killer movie. Good effects and an interesting story, but slows down in parts. I personally thought the massacre towards the end was well worth the way. Check this baby out, but try to get the unrated Hong Kong DVD tocatch the 3-minute extra footage. You can purchase it here. 6/10-- (UHM)
