''City Warriors'' is a 1988 action movie directed by Johnny Wang, starring Dick Wei (reuniting them both ever since ''Film/HongKongGodfather''). In typical brutal 80s Hong Kong fashion, the movie is violent, gory, and excessively over-the-top with plenty of red throughout.

Lok Han (Wei) is a former PRC soldier who left China for Hong Kong, under the pretense of joining a tour group, but in actuality he have a secret mission of his own; years ago his sister ran away from home due to eloping with her boyfriend, and is presumed lost forever... until he discovered news about her recently. News about the hidden truth of Hong Kong's dark, seedy, corrupted underbelly...

** The transvestite sister is a {{Transgender}} enforcer, an effeminate creep with violent tendencies who takes delight in beating up prostitutes personally, [[LecherousLicking licking a scared prostitute too afraid to defend herself in her cheek]], and orders an abused hooker that attempts a getaway to be tied upon a chair and tortured by having a plastic bag filled with cockroaches wrapped around her face. When not creeping out the audience by flirting with other men, he's (yes, ''he'') also in charge of stalking and murdering prostitutes who tried to leave, and clearly takes delight in gutting hookers slowly and painfully just ForTheEvulz. If audiences doesn't hate him for being violent and ruthless, they can sure hate him for being creepy and revolting.

* PhoneBooth: A hooker who tries fleeing from the prostitution ring at night managed to make her way into a phone booth, until the Transvestite Old Sister stalks her all the way to the booth, where she gets assaulted while in the middle of informing the police and calling for help. She ends up [[CuttingTheElectronicLeash being stabbed mid-call and gutted while screaming all the way]].

* AccidentalMurder: Sai-kit, in the final shootout, [[spoiler: ends up shooting his own employer, Senator Chor, when trying to shoot Lok Han]]. He doesn't flinch upon commiting the murder though, and neither will the audience, because [[AssholeVictim one less scumbag in the world]] is always a good thing...

* HateSink: The secondary villains of the picture are a prostitution ring who tricks young, desperate woman in need of financial support to join them, and sell their services to wealthy clients who are usually abusive and have no qualms physically and sexually abusing helpless hookers. Any prostitutes who tries to make a getaway are hunted down and delivered a thrashing, and those who [[HeKnowsTooMuch knows the true nature of their businesses]] are summarily hunted down and executed, like the prostitute discovered in a sack early in the film.

** Senator Chor is a CorruptPolitician secretly running the prostitution ring while keeping their shady activities a secret using his power. When [[spoiler: Lok Han's sister, forced into prostitution by her husband]], escapes the ring, he personally orders his enforcer and TheDragon, Sai-kit to hunt her down, killing several police officers and witnesses. With nobody to testify against him, he then smugly rubs his position of power before the presses saying how [[BlatantLies he's an honest politician that cares for the people, with rivals who spread false lies about him to tarnish his good reputation]].
