摘要

摘要:本文考察了两部三级片《梦幻家园》(彭浩翔，2010)和《初记》(邱浩翔，2015)中的暴力美学。作者认为，第三类美学通过类型混合、分析和对香港历史的叙述参考等策略来平衡过度暴力及其遏制，揭示了官方话语与争取向上流动的性别主体之间的交集。将每部电影中的主角视为香港新自由主义和次帝国经济中暴力的受害者和肇事者，使作者能够恢复回归后香港的第三类电影的文化功能。

Category III Films in Post-Handover Hong Kong: Excessive Violence and Its Containment in Weiduoliya yi hao and Chuji

ABSTRACT:This article examines the aesthetics of violence in two Category III–rated films: Weiduoliya yi hao (Dream Home, Pang Ho-cheung, 2010) and Chuji (Sara, Herman Yau, 2015). The author argues that Category III aesthetics, which balance excessive violence and its containment through strategies of genre-blending, analepsis, and narrative references to Hong Kong history, expose the intersection between official discourse and gendered subjects striving for upward mobility. Reading the protagonists in each film as victims and perpetrators of violence within Hong Kong’s neoliberal and subimperial economy allows the author to rehabilitate the cultural function of Category III films in post-handover Hong Kong.
