So here we are… ready to rip apart another actor akin to what we did with Alan Tam. But we judged his filmography fairly ultimately and that’s what we’re going to do across a number of episodes for George Lam as well. Dubbed The George Lam Defaming Sessions where we determine if he’s Lam Or Lame. First up, Tsui Hark pits George Lam and Teddy Robin against each other in Cinema City’s wild comedy All The Wrong Clues (For The Right Solution) and Ann Hui finishes off her examination of Vietnam in Boat People. With Kenny B and Phil G of Eastern Film Fans.

This Week In Sleaze 52: Confession Of A Concubine & Vulgaria

6 October 2017 knetan PODCASTS, This Week In Sleaze 01:28:04 0 Comments

Adding to the list of Category III movies about making Category III movies, only one of our movies this week cover this criteria but they are connected! 1976’s Confession Of A Concubine is a fairly obscure period erotica with elements later seen in A Chinese Torture Chamber Story but the true connection to 1976 is 2012’s Vulgaria from director Pang Ho-cheung. He centers his plot about remaking/making a sequel to the 1976 movie and thus, we cover both.
