As Hong Kong was under British rule until 1997, all HK-made films - even these... er... cost-conscious productions - were required to have English subtitles.

A collection of some of the more... interesting subtitles was printed in the book Sex and Zen %26amp; A Bullet in the Head by Stefan Hammond and Mike Wilkins. Part of this collection is reprinted here - without, of course, permission. I throw myself on the mercy of the court.
