Stephen Shui Jr. returns with "Sex and Zen: Extreme Ecstasy / 3D 肉蒲团之极乐宝鉴" 3DThe CLASSIC series returns!
In the post-"Avatar" world, if your visuals aren't 3D, you're not trying hard enough. One segment of the movie industry where they tend to try to be hard enough is pornography. Producer Stephen Shui Jr. who made the original "Zen and Sex" 20 years ago has now made a US$4 million 3D version.
Although the film has a May 2011 release date, tourists from mainland China have already booked in advance to travel to Hong Kong to watch the film.
As a conceited scholar of the Ming Dynasty, Wei Yangsheng believes that since life is shot, one should pursue the ultimate sexual pleasure as time allows. Wei Yangsheng encounters Tie Fei the Taoist priest's daughter, Tie Yuxiang, on an occasion. With the former's talent and the latter's beauty, they fall in love at first sight, and Wei Yangsheng is later married into the Tie's family. Yuxiang is elegant and courteous under the influence of her father's faith, though her lack of passion cannot fully satisfy Wei Yangsheng's sexual needs. His disappointment is no less than his affection for her. The cast includes Japanese porn star
Saori Hara, Yukiko Suô, Hiro Hayama, Vonnie Lui, Leni Lan, Tony Ho, Irene Chen.
