A Candidate for Mystery Science Theatre 3000

A taste of hell, indeed! If hell is half as bad as this movie was, then I pray for any poor soul heading for Dante's Inferno!

In a nutshell, the script was non-existent, the plot, well there was actually no plot, and the fighting, well, you could tell this was a pathetic "B" Movie. There was no character development, even the slashing of a knife looked fake. The only reason I didn't turn this movie off after the first three minutes was in respect for the $ 1.07 I shelled out for this flop! The costumes looked, surprise surprise, like the seventies and not like WWII 1942. The movie lacked any dénouement though I will give it the credit of having a climax. All in all, as I said in my title, this would truly be a knee slapper on Mystery Science Theatre 3000!

Trivia
A clip of this movie (the decapitation scene) was showed in the Norwegian TV-debate program "På Sparket" on 11 December 1980. This program was the start of the long and heated debate about so called video-nasties (videovold) in Norway. The movie was almost labeled as a video-nasty among with movies like "Texas chainsaw massacre", "The Exterminator", "Cannibal holocaust" etc.

Goofs
Towards The End Of The Film A Female Gorilla Fighter Was Charging Towards The Japanese When She Was Shot. The Blood Pack Used Began Spilling Out Before The Explosive Charge Fired To Make It Look Like She Was Shot. And The Explosive Charge Fired Off On Her Shoulder Not Her Chest Where The Blood Began To Show.
