There is a trilogy of short horror films titled '3 Extremes' by 3 Asian
directors - Takashi Miike (Japanese), Fruit Chan(Chinese) and Park
Chan-wook(Korean). The short titled 'Dumplings' by Fruit Chan was
expanded into a full-length movie.
Dumplings deals with the above "urban legend".

Mention of xenophobia, urban legend, sex energy (and my contribution,
horror movies); No, I don't think this thread will convince anyone to
switch to Linux instead of Vista :-)
