Mankillers

Mankillers (1987) is a movie that I recently watched on Tubi. The storyline follows a female CIA agent hired to train a group of jailed ladies with nothing to lose to accompany her to Colombia to take down a drug lord and his partner, who happens to be an ex-CIA agent himself. This movie is written and directed by David A. Prior (Sledgehammer) and stars Edd Byrnes (Grease), Gail Fisher (Knightrider), Edy Williams (The Naked Kiss) and Thyais Walsh (The Gospel Truth). This movie is really bad and doesn't even have any nudity to offset the limited budget, poor writing and painful acting. The females in this are well selected but under utilized. The training montage was classic 80s but poorly executed. The dialogue was awkward and didn't seem authentic and the action scenes are mediocre. The best part of the movie is the female introductions in jail, the one scene that was so bad it's good. Overall, there's nothing to see here. I would score this a 3/10 and recommend skipping it.

I found this video on a carboot for 50p. The special effects must have cost little more than this, you can create better special effects at home using those those "rio snap" things from when i was a kid, you know the ones that you throw at the ground and they make a small bang. The girls are supposed to be like supermodels but don't even come close. I love this film exactly for these reasons, it is pure low budget cheese! however it still beats higher budget films such as TAXI, the one based on crazy taxi with "queen latifa" which is the worst film i have ever seen in my life!! If you ever see this film for sale on a carboot sale or market buy this film! It will bring you hours of enjoyment :)
