FROM THE LINER NOTESIn 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!3 REASONS TO BUY THIS FILM
REVIEW
This groovy Shaw Brothers sleazefest follows a factory girl (Chen Ping) who gets gang raped by a bunch of grotesque smiling thugs on her way home from work. Not only does she have to live with the memories of her snatch getting entered without permission, but it seems these goons have left her with a scorching case of VD which renders her panties all bloody. So she gets this kung fu dude to teach her his kick ass ways and she gets violent revenge on every last one of them. And, yes, this was one of the movies that inspired Kill Bill... if only it could've inspired Uma Thurman to show her tits as Chen Ping does many times here. Includes both subtitled and dubbed versions. -- Rick Stanko
