ANGEL TERMINATORS (Hong Kong, 1990)
Directed by: Lieh Wei

Subtitled Live!
B-movies always have to try harder, and this girls with guns flick gets an A++ for (intense) effort. Shot in 1990 and not released until two years later, it’s an undiscovered grindhouse joyride full of bare-knuckled stars: Lau Kar-leung acolyte, Kara Hui; the “lady Jackie Chan”, Sharon Yeung, whose career never quite caught fire the way it should; Japanese back-breaker, Michiko Nishiwaki; the sultry Carrie Ng; angry white boy, Mark Houghton; and everyone’s favorite bad guy, Dick Wei. They all turn in blistering action work in this mile-a-minute rampage through exploitation heaven. Two lady cops and one gangster’s ex-girlfriend endure drug addiction, theme park shoot-outs, having their heads shoved in toilets, kicks to the face, terrifying high impact falls, and major concussions to prove that women are 10 times better than men. No subtitled print of this movie exists that we could find, so we’re subtitling this one live in a once-in-a-lifetime celebration of high caliber girl power.
