Description

Kai is a violent fugitive on the run from the law. Making his way from Hong Kong to South Africa, he begins a new life working at a small Chinese restaurant. When he joins his boss on a work trip through the African savanna, he encounters a remote African tribe afflicted with the Ebola virus. After attacking a young woman from the tribe, he contracts the virus, but to his surprise, he discovers that he’s immune to the deadly disease. His ruthlessness emboldened, Kai returns to Hong Kong, thus setting into motion a blood spewing and bodily fluids oozing nightmare!

One of the most shocking and notorious Category III films, Herman Yau’s (The Untold Story) EBOLA SYNDROME is a delectably grotesque and darkly comedic splatter film masterwork and stars Hong Kong cult film superstar, Anthony Wong (Hard Boiled), in one of his most outrageous performances. For years almost impossible to find in its uncut form, Vinegar Syndrome is delighted to present the worldwide UHD debut of EBOLA SYNDROME, newly scanned and restored in 4K from its original 35mm camera negative and finally fully uncut for the first time on English friendly home video.

    Cult classic on 4K

    Ebola Syndrome is one of those movies that's absolutely insane from start to finish, but that's what makes it so much fun. It's outrageous, disturbing, and completely over the top, making it a memorable experience for fans of extreme Hong Kong cinema. I've always enjoyed this crazy little gem, so seeing it arrive on 4K for the first time is fantastic.

    I was happy to snag the previously sold-out slipcover during Vinegar Syndrome's Labor Day sale when the OOP edition returned. The packaging looks fantastic, and the release comes packed with great special features that make it even more worthwhile.
