About Fairy Tale Killer
When a bloodied and incoherent Jun (Wang Baoqiang) confesses to five murders that have not occurred, the police assume that he's mentally unstable and ignore his claims. Police detective Han (Lau Ching-wan) is investigating a series of gruesome murders, but soon discovers that all is not as it seems and that not only are the murders connected, but that Jun is tied to them in some way.
Directed by Danny Pang Phat, Fairy Tale Killer leans on a strong ensemble — Lau Ching-Wan, Wang Baoqiang, Elanne Kwong Yeuk-Lam — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about thriller titles of 2012.
