In this gooey gem of a monster-mash, Danny Lee plays a Hong Kong everyman who has been crippled and is down-on-his-luck - that is, until he learns of a spell that can turn him into a transformative and transmorphing pile of ferocious but malevolent mush. Yes, he is The Oily Maniac - and in this Cantonese predecessor to Troma’s The Toxic Avenger, he is able to appear and re-appear at will, making it all the more tricky for his arch-enemies to dillute his delirious brilliance.
