Movie Synopsis:

CIA Anent Harry is bitten by a man who was part of a deadly experiment involving the ability to withstand pain. The bacterium has a virus, causing the victim to become a zombie. Upon Harry's arrival in Hong Kong, after rejection from his ex-girlfriend, the virus begins to take effect. He kills a call girl and is arrested after a gang fight. When he is in prison, Harry transforms into a Zombie King and transforms nearly an entire Triad gang into his personal horde. Soon, the police department becomes a House of the Dead. It's up to a police officer named Marco, Harry's ex, and a Triad member named Cheap to stop them before it's too late.

DVD REVIEW:

The people who bought this DVD are either fans of Stephen Fung or Sam Lee OR they thought this was a Resident Evil (Biohazard) movie.

Sure, it has similar plots to the popular video game but this one is obviously low budget.  Even the zombie's makeup wasn't that good.

But when you bring Stephen Fung and Sam Lee together, you know it's going to be a fun movie.  So, despite the cheap, low budget film and the corny story, it's still somewhat enjoyable.  Although it's supposed to be a horror movie, the horror is too comedic.  

If there was a part of the movie I disliked, it was the ending. I don't know...it's like having Michael Jackson "Thriller" music video flashbacks in my mind.

Anyway, I highly recommend checking out BIO-ZOMBIE over BIO-COPS. I recommend this movie if you are a Sam Lee or Stephen Fung fan (and even the two beautiful Chan girls).  

As for the DVD, quality was typical Mei Ah.  No trailer for this movie but for "Please Clear My Name Mr. Coroner".
