Riki-Oh: The Story of Ricky (Cantonese title: 力王, Lik wong) is a 1991 Hong Kong martial arts splatter film loosely based on the 1987-1990 Japanese manga of the same name by Masahiko Takajo and Tetsuya Saruwatari. The film takes place in a dystopian future where capitalist nations have privatized goverment businesses (including prisons) and stars Siu-Wong Fan as Ricky Ho, a superhuman martial artist who is admitted into one of these prisons. The film follows his journey to take down the prison's corrupt staff and free the enslaved prisoners. The film, known for its gory and gratuitous sequences, has since become a cult classic.
