About Roller Blade Killer
When he’s not tending bar and performing lead in a choreographed rollerblade floorshow at the local hotspot, disdainfully flipping off his mother’s latest lay, or sleeping with the girlfriend of his wealthy, four-wheeled rival, rollerboy Cheng Tung-chuen is tearing up the Taipei streets with his rollerpals, which is how he witnesses hitman Billy Chow kill three other hitmen and light the bodies on fire, but since he has no father figure in his life, he ends up spending the night at Billy’s because Billy feels really bad about his career and just wants to fall in love with supercop Yvonne Yung Hung.
Directed by Chan Wai-On, Roller Blade Killer leans on a strong ensemble — Yvonne Yung Hung, Billy Chow Bei-Lei, William Ho — 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 1998.
