Ultra-dark-and-violent-loving director Abel Ferrara’s first film (this one) is, like a lot of his peers’ first efforts: a low-budget affair but one that got him attention and jump-started his career.<\/p>\n
The actors in here are nobodies and really not that good, particularly the landlady (Editta Sherman) who is so horrible an actress that she’s interesting only because she’s so inept. Zoe Tamerlis, who played the main character, is almost mesmerizing in her role even though she’s a mute so we never hear her voice. She has a pretty face and gave us some effective facial expressions. Too bad she never made it as a star.<\/p>\n
The story is strictly a female “Death Wish.” A nice girl gets raped not once but twice within hours, snaps, and goes out on a killing spree. Pretty basic revenge on the lowest of levels but a satisfying film nonetheless and, at 80 minutes, breezes by. <\/p>\n
