A young woman travels to "SE Asia" (country never divulged) despite her elders warning her never to go there. She is then apparently the victim of a curse or "spell" that causes her body to spew centipedes which quickly turn on their host.
The woman's brother travels around the same "SE Asian" country trying to undo the curse while we are treated to more centipede-spewing, some coming out the mouth, others, apparently, coming out the vagina swimming in menstrual blood.
I will say that however much the actress was paid who had centipedes coming out of her mouth - and crawling back in there - wasn't enough.
Other than that all that the movie really has to offer are some interesting black magic sequences, but these pale in comparison to the classic Shaw Bros. movie, "Boxer's Omen".
Some of my difficulty with the movie may have admittedly been due to the typically obtuse subtitles, which would be familiar to any fan of HK movies. You know the ones, with the Asian characters on top and English beneath them. The English is generally poorly translated, but that's not the biggest problem: the subtitles are white and so are many of the movie's scenes, making some of the subtitles impossible to read.
