And with that, thanks #cultshelf brethren! Next week, we got DEAD END DRIVE-IN and HAUSU (HOUSE)! Until then, take care and get some sleep!

#cultshelf Of course, this killing only emphasizes how much Lok will try to hold onto power longer than he should in the second movie, and will learn, even he’s not strong enough to avoid a gruesome fate.

#cultshelf Well, Lok heard your idea, Big D, and I think he’s strongly against it.

#cultshelf Co-run the Triads? Oh, I’m sure that one person will not want that.

#cultshelf Considering what happens in the sequel, Jimmy really should have taken that advice to get out.

#CultShelf Well, there was a betrayal. Probably not the one that one of those guys thought it was gonna be.

#cultshelf “This is the modern age. You’re too old fashioned.”

#cultshelf “And now, welcome to AmWay.”

#cultshelf Heh heh heh they ducked out of that ambush pretty smoothly.

#cultshelf Of course, it’s interesting to see how Lok and Jimmy’s bargain here goes pear shaped in the sequel because ultimately, power corrupts.

Jimmy is played by Louis Koo, another guy who has made numerous appearances in movies here. #CultShelf

#cultshelf Yikes. Message is clear: we killed your kid, your other kids are next if you testify.

#cultshelf Time for a good old fashioned triad knife fight!

#cultshelf Uh oh. Someone might be turning snitch.

#cultshelf Well, that’s one way to introduce each other.

“If I rob a brother, I shall be killed by five thunderbolts.” Dude is going all out. #CultShelf

#cultshelf Hey, if you can’t hash this out in jail, where else can you?

#cultshelf This is a complex narrative, and yet has one simple MacGuffin: whoever has the baton runs things.

Man, getting hired at Arby’s is rough.

#cultshelf Next week we got two movies I’ve had in the queue since this whole thing started. Already mentioned that Tuesday is DEAD END DRIVE-IN and Friday is…well, a weird Japanese haunted house movie with a memorable name. More on that later…

#cultshelf Tony Leung Ka-Fai (not to be confused with the Tony Leung we know) as Big D.

Kids haven’t tried the newest craze of being rolled down a hill in a crate. #CultShelf

#CultShelf Simon Yam as Lok has been here so many times I’ve actually lost count.

#CultShelf You think he just has that girl specifically just to do that?

#CultShelf People trying to bribe their way into office? What is this, 2024 again?

#CultShelf We’ve shown three Johnnie To movies here, and there’s quite a few more movies of his we will definitely have to get to down the road.

#CultShelf “Who’s dumb enough to eat a spoon?”

#CultShelf We of course saw this and its sequel, ELECTION 2 (TRIAD ELECTION), which came out a year after this.

#CultShelf This was first shown here in March of 2023.

Start ELECTION (2005) now! #CultShelf
