Directed by Fruit Chan | 2014
With Wong You-nam, Janice Man, Simon Yam, Kara Hui, Lam Suet
Paranoia abounds in Fruit Chan’s latest, a delirious genre bender that finds 16 minibus passengers alone in an eerily empty Hong Kong after a late night ride home. Reluctantly united against an unknown enemy, Chan's stellar cast of unwitting survivors (Lam Suet, Simon Yam) set up headquarters in a cafe and attempt to figure out what force has changed their city overnight. Like George Romero, Chan mixes social satire with serious fun—including the spectre of an unrecognizable Hong Kong and David Bowie-inspired musical numbers.
