Not as good as the first of course, because nothing could be. But a worthwhile sequel for us sickos out there! And figuring out a way to bring Anthony Wong back means this is a stellar affair automatically. Gorgeous restoration and solid supplements.

As a massive fan of Category III films as well as the original The Untold Story (1993), there was no way I was going to pass on The Untold Story 2. Although there is definitely some gore and violence in this sequel, it leans more into being a darkly funny erotic thriller. That isn't to say that it is without merit. On the contrary, I found the movie to be engaging in no small part due to the return of Anthony Wong who takes on the role of a bumbling cop (!). Despite the movies tonal shifts (which some may not like), it all comes together quite well to form an entertaining package. The special effects are not nearly as gruesome as the original, but they work well enough for the plot. Vinegar Syndrome did a magnificent job with the restoration as the colors are quite vibrant. Also, I absolutely dig the slipcase which features one of the more memorable scenes from the movie. Overall, this is a fine addition for any fan of Cat III flicks.

The Untold Story 2 is basically a ’90s erotic thriller that slowly mutates into nasty Hong Kong Cat III horror, and that combination worked for me. Emotion Cheung is perfectly miserable as the husband trapped in a terrible marriage, while Paulyn Sun starts off surprisingly sympathetic before the movie reveals just how dark things are going to get. Anthony Wong showing up in a supporting role is a nice bonus too.
The movie definitely leans harder into the sexual side than the first Untold Story, but it still delivers the ugly violence you expect from the name. It’s trashy, uncomfortable, occasionally ridiculous, and exactly the kind of Cat III insanity I’m here for.
The Blu-ray looks surprisingly strong too. Vinegar Syndrome restored it in 2K from the original 35mm negative, and the VSA presentation is perfect for it — VHS-style slipcase, reversible artwork, and poster included.
Sleazy? Absolutely. Tasteful? Not even trying 😂. But as a grimy late-’90s Hong Kong exploitation movie, it delivers.
