I recently purchased this film off ebay recently and i figured to buy it and see if its any good? The fighting within the film is not as what you call first rate, i've seen better, but the scenes were good. Also you get outtakes from the film, e.g. making line mistakes etc. Shannon Tweed does a good job of playing a innocent mum to mistress to the evil "roach", what a name. I've seen quite a few of Shannon Tweed's films, some of which i have on DVD, Body Chemistry 4 to name one, Overall i rated this 3 stars as its OK in some places, but her other films have done a lot better. If you've got a collection of her films like I have, add this one to spice it up slightly.
Any lover of 50's 'B' movies should tune into this ridiculous, over-the-top, bad-taste film which despite everything is great fun to watch. Shannon Tweed may be limited in her acting range, but for entertainment value give the girl a gold suspender belt in recognition for her services to cinema.
'Electra' concerns a wheelchair-bound (and therefore emasculated) megalomaniac called Roach, who seeks world domination in a James Bond-villain kind of way. He needs a serum which can be passed on sexually and Shannon Tweed's step-son Billy (whom she fancies) has the serum in him and they both become the target of Roach's henchmen (and women - there are two particularly appealing, erotic but deadly, kickboxing female assistants).
The plot is relatively tight and everything reaches a climax with Shannon Tweed becoming Electra and fighting her stepson's girlfriend for his bodily fluids. Roach meets his demise with an exploding head finale (like Scanners), and everything trundles along happily to a selection of out-takes before the final credits.
First rate entertainment - anyone who slates this film should have their video taken off them - they don't understand the meaning of fun.
BEST SCENE - Billy's girlfriend has a fight with two leather-clad girls, ripping the heart out of one of them !!!

Electra.. The new movie starring Playboy Playmate Shannon Tweed.. I saw this a few years ago.. I must admit, it was one of the most terrible movies I've seen.. My Sister and I watched it.. We were just laughing our heads off throughout the movie..
In this film, you got this funny looking billionaire Roach (STEN EIRIK) who looks like something out of Dr Who.. looking for a serum which can turn some human into superhuman.. The serum is in a teen kid's body, Billy (JOE TABB).. So Roach send his guys to keep Billy's butt and get the serum from him..
As it goes on, there were so many flaws in that film.. I really couldn't get the hang of anything on there..
So, I felt like this is totally gross.. Pure pappy-show! I know for a fact, Ashok Amritraj made produced some really good action films.. But this is one of his worsts..
Well, in the world of film-making.. There are some good points and there are some bad points.. I'm just looking at the bad..
It's terrible! Not my cup of tea! Awful! 1 out of 10!

Where does one begin in trying to describe this movie? Even as over-the-top, tongue-in-cheek movies go, this is an experience that is particularly hard to describe. First off, this film is not for everybody, as I'm sure many people would have a problem with the major sexual tension between stepmom and son. For those of you who are not offended, prepare for a ridiculous plot, hilariously bad fighting scenes, and some truly abysmal out-takes that were rescued from the chopping room floor for our...um...pleasure. This film is SO bad, in fact, that it's almost worthwhile. If you thought that only Ed Wood could make films so bad that they're funny, then this film proves you wrong. I saw this film alone, and found it to be funny at times. Watch this film with a group of friends, and you'll probably enjoy a laugh riot.
Electra is an awful erotic comedy concerning a widowed woman, played by the absolutely gorgeous Shannon Tweed, who is desperate to get it on with her stepson who just happens to possess superhuman powers. This is totally awful film which consists of busty women in fetish gear performing in terribly tacky fight scenes. One fleeting glimpse of Shannon Tweeds bare breasts is all you see, although you do see her in leather bondage gear, which is the highlight of this terrible, terrible, terrible film. However if I could spend a night with any woman on the planet i'd still choose Shannon Tweed every time. Shannon Tweed is beyond dispute the sexiest "older woman" in movie history. If only she'd get her panties off more in genuinely sexy films instead of putting her name to rubbish like this.
