Hilarious trash

Ranks with MALIBU HIGH as one of the most hilariously arty trash movies ever conceived. A deaf girl is raped by a gang of hoodlums; her punkish sister and THEIR gang of female hoodlums vows revenge.....

Linnea Quigley plays the deaf girl, and Linda Blair is humorously straight-faced as the rough-and-tumble iconoclastic "young lady". Her gratuitous nude scene is equally facetious. The rape scene is rather brutal and obscene though. Definitely a scene you'd want to watch for Linnea Quigley's nudity, even though it's there.

Director Danny Steinman went on toe direct the 5th FRIDAY THE 13TH film a year after the release of this one.

Rated R for strong graphic language, a brutal rape scene, violence, nudity, and drug use.
