Finished watching Conspiracy (2000)...
I read somewhere that this was supposed to be a good thriller,however the person who wrote that seems oblivious to what constitutes a good thriller imho...
At best average is more like it with almost no exploitative elements and no nudity...how it ever got a IIB rating is a mystery to me.
The cover is pure exploitation!

Thankfully it's shot on film but otherwise it's a typical example of HK cinema well beyond it's heyday.
Actually it has a more western/American feel (US films started flooding the HK market by then).

As a pick-me-up I started watching a bit of Demoness of a 1000 years (1990),an almost forgotten and underrated low budget HK fantasy film...

And just the first 10 minutes of this totally blew away Conspiracy!
