Based on the manga by Toru Shinohara, the story is about a special police agent (Miki Sugimoto) who is arrested for the killing of a serial rapist, who turns out to be a foreign diplomat. But when the daughter of Japan's next Prime Minister (YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE's Tetsuro Tanba) is kidnapped, the police are ordered to retrieve her and eliminate the culprits (lead by KAMEN RIDER V3's Eiji Go). They release the incarcerated policewoman -- now codenamed: "Zero", is offered a pardon as long as does their dirty work and returns the daughter alive. When the situation gets out of hand, and threatens his future, the dirty politico orders everyone dead -- including Zero and his daughter. Then, all hell breaks loose in a psychotic cavalcade of blood and fury, as Zero resolves to follow her mission objective through at all costs.
Disc Review: Discotek's audio and video presentation is about equal to similar Toei titles recently issued by Adness America/Ventura Distribution (although Ventura's titles seem to have less speckling and grain). The subtitles are fine for the most part (translating the Japanese "Sori" for "President", instead of "Prime Minister"), and all of the cast and credits are translated (although there are some incorrect translations for names - which is not uncommon). Some lines of subtitled dialogue ran to the very end of my monitor -- which is a bit careless, but hopefully will be corrected on future titles.
There are 25 chapter stops (generous for a movie that only runs 88 minutes) and trailers for the feature (closer to 1:85, which is a bit squeezed) -- which is incredibly grainy -- and a trailer for the live-action LUPIN III feature (in its correct Tohoscope aspect ratio), which looks great, considering the age of the source materials. More effort could have been put into the menus, which are not spectacular --something which Ventura does much better (I really like Ventura's "sock-it-to-me" screen transitions), considering using the non-animated menu style. Different music cues (and the theme song) play over these.
This release sports a beautiful jacket painted by Wes Benscoter and comes with a thick paperboard slipcase. Jacket for the slipcase has the same main painting of Sugimoto Miki, but with different images inset in her red trenchcoat (a nice touch) -- also different photos on the back from the slipcase. The downside is the "Collectible Booklet" which is just a standard four-page color insert, which contains a couple of fuzzy (but not embarassingly poor) reproductions of two of the original Japanese posters, and very basic notes about the film.
While not up to the (admittedly high) standards of Home Vision Entertainment release, such as STREET MOBSTER and GRAVEYARD OF HONOR, Discotek's release of ZERO WOMAN is a pretty good freshman effort. Hopefully, they will improve on any minor blemishes one may nitpick with this release. B+ (for effort on the production and presentation end) and A+ for releasing this film on R1 DVD. Keep 'em coming!
