Pituitary Hunter (1990)
aka: Brain Theft
Director: Dan Pan
Cast: Lung Lam Ling, Chang Wai Leung
The discovery of murdered corpses with their brains meticulously excised leads a Hong Kong cop into the seedy underworld of black market medicine, where he tracks a scapel-happy mercenary doctor with a diabolical experiment.

Corpses are turning up in Hong Kong mortuaries and hospitals with their brains missing, a local celebrated inspecter is trying to solve the crime. He's slowly led to a seedy unauthorised doctor named Kwok, who's got a booming trade in everything from illeagal abortions to unorthodox medication, we later find out our not so good doctor as been doing it to turn his sick midget daughter into a normal sized healthy child.

Wild Hong Kong catIII sporting a truly bizarre and extremely uneven plot. Nothing really makes sense but thats one of the unique aspects of the film, because everytime it lacks logic (which is pretty much its entire duration) it just adds in a warped scene like the crazy character going around eating live animals or a mad self harming midget muscle man who takes out his frustraition by beating up a poster of Sylvester Stalone. Its pretty mild compared to other more notorious catIII's but how can the lure of a killer midget not warrant most cult movie fans attentions.
