The boys launch into the #2 for the year 1980 with "Dangerous Encounters of the First Kind." A groundbreaking Hong Kong film that masterfully blends elements of thriller, horror, and social commentary. It highlights the struggles of a generation caught between youthful rebellion and the harsh realities of society. Hark’s innovative direction and stylistic choices create a tense atmosphere and one hell of a nihilistic masterpiece!!
