Killer's Moon

Killer's Moon (1978)
Director: Alan Birkinshaw
Starring: Anthony Forrest, Tom Marshall
Personal Rating: 1.5/5

"Killer's Moon is Britain's answer to I Spit On Your Grave only sleazier. Produced in the late seventies it mixes lurid scenes of rape with Clockwork Orange Droog style menace, drugs and dollops of ultra violence all of which combined make this a true 'video nasty'. Centered on four drugged-up escaped prisoners whose only purpose in life is to 'loot, kill and rape' and who in true exploitation style seek refuge in the nearest girls school Killer's Moon starts off mired in sleaze and stays there."

Only one man has the skills to teach her how to take out an entire army of thugs, and after her training is over no one will be able to stop her rampage of destruction.

Clan of the White Lotus

Clan of the White Lotus (aka Fists of the White Lotus) (1979)
Director: Lo Lieh
Starring: Gordon Liu Chia-hui, Lo Lieh
Personal Rating: 5/5

"Lo Lieh was famous as Shaw Studio's first international kung-fu film star, but it was rare that he also directed, so this was one of those special events. Following the huge success of Executioners From Shaolin, Lo returned to the villain's role in this, a combination sequel and remake. The result is a lighter-hearted entertainment, as heroic Gordon Liu Chia-hui must learn "Embroidery Fist" and acupuncture to counter the evil White Lotus leader's deadly "Weightless Boxing" and "Nerve Centre Shutdown" techniques."

Delinquent Girl Boss: Worthless To Confess

Delinquent Girl Boss: Worthless To Confess (1971)
Director: Kazuhiko Yamaguchi
Starring: Reiko Oshida
Personal Rating: 5/5

"This was the final entry in the Zubeko Bancho series, with sexy-and-sweet Reiko Oshida heading up a cast of gangster-girl wannabes in a go-go dancing maelstrom of Japanese music, fashion and kitsch. Truly a film that defies description, but imagine a Jack Hill production of Hair with an unsupervised Riot Girl cast, and you're starting to get the picture. The result is a delicious example of Japanese pop culture in high transition from the groovy '60s to the dangerous '70s."

The Dead Pit

The Dead Pit (1989)
Director: Brett Leonard
Starring: Jeremy Slate, Cheryl Lawson
Personal Rating: 2/5
"Zombies rise up from a terrifying pit beneath a notorious mental asylum to do the bidding of the evil Dr. Ramzi, the crazed doctor who twenty years before was walled up alive in the crazy house after someone discovered his horrific experiments involving formaldehyde and illegal lobotomies. Following each experiment, the doctor would casually toss the dead victims into the pit. While his captor slowly bricks him up, Ramzi swears that he will have revenge. When enigmatic Jane Doe is admitted into the asylum for severe amnesia and she turns out to have amazing subconscious psychic power that wakens Ramzi from his hellish sleep, he gets his revenge. Jane and Ramzi seem to be psychically linked and he draws his power from her as he begins to resurrect his former victims. He then sends his small zombie army out into the hospital to find new recruits. Gory, creative killing occurs, for Ramzi's zombies are not only quick, they are also semi-intelligent. Now only Jane, the doctor who originally killed Ramzi, a psychotic demolitions expert and a lunatic zombified nun can stop them."-© Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide
