Victim

Newly Added • 1h 43m

Directed by Ringo Lam • 1999 • Hong Kong
Starring Sean Lau Ching-wan, Tony Leung Ka-fai, Amy Kwok

Director Ringo Lam puts an eerie supernatural spin on his celebrated crime thrillers with this fascinating fusion of police procedural and psychological horror. After he’s kidnapped, tortured, and discovered in a supposedly haunted hotel, computer programmer Manson Ma (Sean Lau Ching-wan) begins exhibiting disturbing behavior that leads his wife (Amy Kwok) to believe he may be possessed. Now it’s up to Detective Pit Kwan (Tony Leung Ka-fai) to determine whether he’s truly dealing with a ghost—or a more human evil.
