A Chinese Torture Chamber Story is a 1994 Hong Kong erotic (Category III) black comedy film produced by Wong Jing and directed by Bosco Lam.
Plot
The tragic death of butcher Ge Xiaoda cast suspicion on his wife, Xiaobaicai, who was alleged to have an improper relationship with Yang Naiwu (played by Wu Qihua). This relationship was suspected to be part of a conspiracy to kill Ge Xiaoda. Governor Liu Xitong (played by Lu Xiong) took on the case.
One night, a neighbor discovered Ge Xiaoda dead and covered in blood. Xiaobaicai was brought to trial, accused of adultery with Yang Naiwu and conspiring to murder her husband. Yang Naiwu, a Juren, could not be tortured due to his status, so he was imprisoned instead. Under Governor Liu's torture, Xiaobaicai revealed her history with Yang Naiwu.
Yang Naiwu fell in love with Xiaobaicai while collecting rent from her parents, who were his tenants. He arranged for Xiaobaicai to help with housekeeping, hoping to take her as a concubine. They developed feelings for each other but did not act on them due to the master-servant relationship and Yang's wife. After Xiaobaicai's parents died, Yang comforted her, and although they had physical contact, they held back due to her mourning period. Xiaobaicai vowed to marry Yang after mourning.
However, Xiaobaicai caught Yang's wife in an affair with Liu Haisheng, Governor Liu's son. Fearing exposure, Yang's wife forced Xiaobaicai to marry Ge Xiaoda, a notorious butcher. Xiaobaicai's attempt to escape failed, leading to her forced marriage.
