Friday Gigolo (1992) aka Sing kei ng ji mo nam

Donald (Simon Yam) is a photographer who takes Fridays off to do what the title suggests. This week, his client is Sophia (Yau Yuet Ching), a ravenous rich man’s wife. She gets her full money’s worth but, before leaving, witnesses a murder in the street. Unable to report to the police for fear of her husband (who is soon revealed to be Donald’s boss !), so Donald reports it to the police and poses as the witness. Big mistake. Partly because of Lan (sister of the murder victim), Donald corroborates her identification of the killer, a mental incompetent who flips out when women arouse him. The court case, in which Donald poses as the witness, fails, then things start going awry. Sophia loses any enthusiasm for the case, leaving Donald out on a limb. Donald witnesses the killer striking again, this time a stripper. He phones Sophia at home, leading his boss to find out he’s been cuckolded. Soon after, Sophia is killed, and Donald is clearly being framed for it. A gang tries to kill Donald in a most suggestive manner, but he’s rescued by Lan. Then it starts to get really violent, and only one of the lead characters survives to the end.
