This review is from: Midnight Angels [VHS] (VHS Tape)

It wasn't long after when this film was released that countless sequels were inspired but had little to do with the original. To capitalize on the success of Angel there were many films with the title "Angel" in them ("Angel Force", "Angel Terminators" and "Killer Angels" just to name a few)but this one was the start of it all; the girls with guns genre. Hong Kong turned out many of these films and had a rabid cult following that is still going strong. The best years from this genre were 1988-1995.

The orignal title for this movie when it was first released was "Iron Angels" which later became "Angel" for video release. It stars two of the greatest Girls with Guns actresses, Moon Lee and Yukari Oshima (Cynthia Luster). Moon plays a part of a special group of undercover operatives called The Iron Angels. When police destroy an opium field, the druglords seek revenge by methodically killing off the police force one by one. That's when the Iron Angels are called in.

What I really enjoyed most about this film is the final fight between Moon & Yukari. One of the most brutal and vicious fights ever. I've never seen two actresses plummel each other like they did here. That scene alone makes this video worth buying.
