The Midnight After (2014) (DVD) (Hong Kong Version)
Fruit Chan (Tales from the Dark 1) is back with post-apocalyptic horror-comedy The Midnight After, based on online novel Lost on a Red Minibus to Tai Po by Pizza. A massive departure from the type of films usually made in Hong Kong, the irreverent satire made the rounds at the Berlin and Hong Kong International Film Festivals, where it invited audiences to look at the sprawling Asian metropolis through a different lens.
Boasting a large cast made up of veterans and young guns including Simon Yam (Iceman), Kara Hui (Rigor Mortis), Sam Lee (Dog Bite Dog), Wong Yau Nam (Gallants), Lam Suet (Drug War), Tsui Tin Yau (Enthralled) and Janice Man (Passion Island), the film begins with a group of strangers boarding a late-night minibus in Mong Kok bound for Tai Po. Amongst them are a junkie, a superstitious insurance broker, a computer expert, a gangster, a music geek and several college students. After the bus passes through the Lion Rock Tunnel, the passengers find themselves in a complete ghost town. The mystery deepens when each of them receives a cell phone message from an unknown source. Can the passengers find a way to overcome whatever has decimated their city’s population despite their clashing personalities, morals and beliefs?.
