Revenge is sweet, no matter how it's gotten., 28 November 1998
Author: Vivee from Springfield, MO

I know that this is an old and campy movie, but the message as a whole rings true even today...if someone gets raped, they want revenge and boy is it sweet when you get it. Look at Sally Fields in "An Eye for an Eye" ----You want it, You get it, You love it!
