1992  
 
This 1992 film is not to be confused with a 1983 feature with the same phonetic Chinese title. In this story, a grim and duty-mad judge enacts a horrific revenge on his wife for having cuckolded him. A decade and more later, the judge's daughter is raped and her husband is killed while they are on their way to visit him. He investigates the crimes to the best of his ability and interviews his two best suspects, who somebody goes to the trouble of killing after they have testified before him. Eventually, the ghosts of the dead get involved in sorting the whole thing out and something approaching genuine justice is, for once, on the agenda. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

It sounds like a sports video, but Emilio Varela vs. Camelia La Texana is actually a Mexican crime flick. The title characters are a couple of criminals. When one announces his intention to reform, the other is sore and annoyed. The rest of the film charts the decline and fall of a beautiful friendship. Maria Almada, Jorge Russek and Silvia Maniquez head the cast. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

1983  
 
This three-part, typical Hong Kong romantic film features the story of a womanizing husband who leaves his wife (Ching Yi) alone on New Year's eve and when she comes back after a half-hearted attempt to go out and enjoy the evening, she discovers that a burglar is about to rob the place. What better revenge, she thinks, than to seduce the burglar? In the next story, a man (Kenny Bee) refuses to marry the woman he lives with because he feels that marriage undermines the love between a couple. One day his live-in companion comes home to find him with another woman, and so she moves out. After some time with this other woman, the man realizes he loves his long-time companion more than he thought, and maybe even marriage would be tolerable under those circumstances. In the last story, a paraplegic ghost haunts the love affair between a man and a woman, creating a difficult problem to resolve. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi
