This year, the second Sunday of every month has seen Subway Cinema take over the Nitehawk to unleash an action classic from the golden era of Hong Kong cinema and now we come to an end with a truly apocalyptic blast of action. We’re not telling you the title until it appears onscreen but we started with Michelle Yeoh’s second movie and we’re ending the year by going full circle.
Two hardcore action actresses go toe-to-toe in this high caliber, totally ‘80s deathmatch that features some of the most brutal beatdowns every put on the big screen. The core of this movie is a pentagram of four Hong Kong bruisers and one Japanese superhero going at each others’ throats, and god help any supporting character, pane of glass, fashion show, innocent bystander, or city that gets in their way. If you think girls can’t fight, allow this movie to punch you in the throat. Hard.
