Synopsis by Jonathan Crow
Before he became famous for directing gritty, two-fisted action flicks, Ringo Lam Ling-tung helmed this low-budget stalker drama. Alan Ng (Alan Tam Wing-lun), a lonely bar-hopper with absolutely zero luck with the ladies, thinks his luck has changed for the better when the stunningly beautiful Jo Jo (Brigitte Lin Ching-hsia) asks him out on a date. Unfortunately for Alan, Jo Jo was asked to court him by her college professor/lover who is running a morally dubious psychological experiment. Convinced that their love is meant to last, Alan doesn't take the news well and soon starts stalking Jo Jo, even to the point of making a scene at her wedding.
