Review of Vendetta

Vendetta (1986)
Sleazy trash that delivers the goods!
7 March 2008
Exciting little pinch of 80s drive-in scruff details a stuntwoman purposely seeking a jail sentence in a reckless scheme to avenge the murder of her timid little sister, brutally killed by an athoritarian bulldyke inmate and her loyal minions.

Better than average direction and quite capable performances make this WIP flick worth a watch. The key villainess is especially well played...a truly imposing lady with a tucked-in shirt and a Jack Lord pompadour. Too, it's nice to see legendary cowpunkettes The Screamin' Sirens in a brief performance clip.

Hot grrrl-fights and every obligatory women's prison cliché in the book make this a good-time grindhouse throwback.

7/10...recommended.
