Most of his films are low budget sex films, but in the late 80s he did low budget sex-horror, before the genre died out in the 90s and he did mostly sex movies and sex comedies, etc.
This movie is an action flick, wedged between 2 of his "better" films, "Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-a-Rama" and "Nightmare Sisters", where Michelle Bauer works with him again. Dr. Alien and Creepozoids were also made around this time, though I think Creepoziods is one of the worst low budget movies ever made. It does have one loan bright spot, which is also why Nightmare Sisters is so well known, LeAnna Quigley. Michelle Bauer also joins in that cult classic film as well.
Speaking of Ms. Bauer, the 80's scream queen is the ONLY reason to watch this flick. Yes, the main lead Peggy McIntaggart is easy on the eyes and athletic enough for the action scenes and the wielding of a gun, but she is a TERRIBLE actress, completely unconvincing not only when she has to deliver a line, but even worse in reaction and still scenes.
Someone mentioned this in their review, but the movie at one point has a car chase scene that ends in a fiery wreck. It is one of the worst shot crashes in the history of cinema because even in movies, NO ONE WOULD HAVE survived. Its got great pyrotechnics but its a complete overkill. The car she is in is literally bursts into fire, yet she is able to escape with no wounds or burns, just a tiny hole in the windshield and some black ash on her face...she has a BF of sorts in the front seat during all of this, but he disappears after the wreck happens and isnt accounted for at all, she and the movie literally forgets about him...until maybe later in the film. (Ill be honest, I started fast forwarding after this) It gets worse when you see that the pursuers, who saw their SUV turn upside down after the wreck and then even blow-up, they were all unscathed (they even yell at her OFF SCREEN about how its not over) They of course return later to kill someone laid up in a hospital they once had a chance to kill, but only sexually assaulted and maimed the victim, thus putting the victim into a coma, they then GO BACK to the hospital, where the victim isnt guarded and kill her. WHY kill someone in a medically induced coma in a hospital when they could have killed her the first time but decided not too? Because the script needed it to happen so they could pad out the time and so the lead could even get more "revenge".
This movie was an attempt by DeCoteau to make a straight action-revenge flick with a female lead, but it horrendous like the acting from most of the other actors in this film. Except for Michelle Bauer you wont recognize anyone.
