But this is only the beginning. A bizarre rainy-night car crash, an innocent woman forced into a suicide pact, a bride-to-be murdered before her wedding… As Pandora’s box opens in a blood-soaked frenzy, a deadly game of vengeance in the name of love begins.
The countdown to carnage is ticking. Dare you witness this twisted sacrifice of lust and death?
A mysterious woman lying in a hospital bed. A macabre love-suicide ritual in a secluded mansion. What ultimate secrets lie hidden in this web of desire and revenge? A scandalous crime of passion is about to reveal its bloodstained truth…
The crime thriller "Private Eye" has released its "Trapped in the Kill Zone" teaser trailer and "Clues to the Crime" poster, officially announcing its release on May 31st.
Produced by Soi Cheang, directed by Lee Tsz Chun and Chow Man Yu, and written by Chow Man Yu, the film stars Louis Koo and Chrissie Chau, alongside Liu Kuan-ting, Raymond Wong, Renci Yeung, Eddie Cheung, Rachel Wong, Pei Yong, and Cai Xiangyu, with a special appearance by AK Kuan.
In the "Trapped in the Kill Zone" teaser, private investigator Ouyang Weiye (Louis Koo) stumbles upon a series of horrific killings—a young woman’s desperate struggle, a corpse covered in ghastly wounds, a fatal car crash in the rain, and the detective’s own descent into frenzied rage…
What shocking truths lie behind these blood-soaked crimes?
Can the private eye uncover the dark secrets buried beneath the madness?
The accompanying "Clues to the Crime" poster features Louis Koo’s detective standing before a plastic-wrapped female corpse, magnifying glass in hand, his expression grave and penetrating—as if peeling back layer after layer of deception.
Behind him, a chaotic wall of case notes reveals eerie car accidents, deaths by suffocation, love triangles, and illicit affairs… hinting at a conspiracy far more sinister than anyone could imagine.
