Product Description

In one of the most savage stories of retribution ever filmed, a tough and beautiful factory girl is attacked by a gang of thugs. Learning that she only has a limited time to live due to a contracted disease, she vows to kill the men responsible, thanks to the training of a retired martial arts master with the skills necessary to wipe out an entire criminal army! Filled with jaw-dropping action sequences and wild twists, this swinging `70s exploitation classic was a strong inspiration for Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill and is one of Hong Kong's most outrageous cult classics, now available on DVD for the first time!

4.0 out of 5 stars Some fun exploitation!, September 5, 2008

By	morgoth "we lamas are traditional enemies of ... (omaha, NE) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

Chan Ping works in a factory, and after work one day she gets jumped by a bunch of guys (including Fan Mei Sheng, Kong Do and Chan Shen). They really have their way with her, and she is left with a sexual disease. She is haunted by her memories and wants to take revenge. She meets Lo Lieh who plays a brothel owner with a limp, and she convinces him to teach her how to fight so she can take revenge.

This is an odd movie. The director seems to be getting every underskirt shot he can capture. And there is one really weird scene where Chan Ping goes to see a gynecologist and the guy is a total sicko. The movie is well done, but I found it even more fun because of all the exploitation. There's plenty of nudity, and there's also plenty of violence. The fights are pretty good for 1973. Lo Lieh looks great, though nobody else really gets to shine. The final 8 minutes or so is where it gets really crazy. They don't focus on showing blood and guts splattering everywhere, but the violence is still pretty graphic. Highly recommended for fans of Shaw Brothers exploitation movies.

3.5/5

The Image DVD has great picture quality. It has the original language, and also an English dub. Image has been using English dubs on their releases a lot lately, and I am very thankful for it.
