Intruder (1997) ***

Beautiful Wu Chien-Lien ("Eat Drink Man Woman") plays a devoted wife who kills one innocent person after another in order to bring her hubby from Mainland China to Hong Kong. It's an expertly crafted, very shocking thriller with suspense sequences worthy of Alfred Hitchcock. It forces the viewers to identify with the killer in the first hour or so, but fortunately allows a more satisfying identification for the conclusion.
