This movie is more intense than "Ms. .45"!
15 August 2012 | by (WILMINGTON, NC) – See all my reviews

A femme fatale who will stop at nothing to avenge her sister. Cold, silent, and ruthless as she is. That's Karma (Shera Bechard), a mute Russian woman who has gotten the about her sister. Shred travels to Toronto, Canada to infiltrate the underworld. That way she get the people responsible for her sister's death. During that night, she did her dance, and went to confront the sex trafficker by luring him in a bathroom, and she gives him some of the leftover laundry detergent as drugs. Boy, did he get a burn! Karma made a lot of kills, including the one who raped her. She does however, get some help from a policeman who is hot on their trails. He does not approve of Karma's actions, but when got put in a corner, he told her to do it! She does, however, there was a bit of a surprise for Karma. Her sister was all right! The real question is, "Who did the Russian mafia kill?" She cries when saw the cop slumped, but was relieved that he was all right. This movie puts "Ms. .45 " to shame. And it's one of the best femme fatale movies I have ever seen. I would definitely recommend this movie a lot. It has received a lot of awards, and it got a lot of approvals as well. It's a keeper. 5 stars!
