Three waitresses are
secretly crime fighters, sorta. They are actually enforcers for a revenge
company. Mistreated and/or abused women hire them to dish out brutal
paybacks to male bullies. Most of their activities are directed at harming
the genitalia of the male victims, whether it be with impotence-inducing-injections
[see pic below right] or with leather restraints or various other
torture devices.
Perhaps the oddest
aspect of this movie is the high-heeled punishers themselves. Considering
their pro-feminist occupation, they wear hardly any clothes. Decked out
in leather bustiers, T-backs, garter belts, fishnet hoses, and foot crunching
high heeled boots, the fight the good fight while giving the audience
a great view of their charms. And then - presumably because they work
up quite a sweat - director Kodama includes an overly generous number
of shower sequences.
The female freedom
fighters are real-life members of a Japanese pop group known as the D-Cats.
They also perform the theme song to prove it, but all-in-all they aren't
bad actresses, playing the roles with crack-owl seriousness. Undoubtedly,
the film is inspired by the highly successful RAPEMAN
series, but there are enough divergences for the movie to stand on its
own.
