The Machine Girl
I really dont know where to start when trying to describe this movie. Its the typical japanese kung fu movie revenge plotline, following a girl trying to avenge her brothers death. The twist being that rather like the classic "one armed boxer" and "one armed swordsman" she only has her right arm and has a machine gun (minigun) attached to her left arm stump. The special effects are awful and every few minutes youre subject to ludicrous amounts of blood spraying from peoples missing limbs and wounds. The movie is very comic book, with people deflecting bullets with swords/chainsaws and the stereotypical japanese school girl running around in her uniform killing everyone.
The quality of the movie itself is good, the acting and translated dialogue is simple but fine, the plot is obvious but its all incredibly entertaining. I dont want to give out too many examples of rediclous deaths or weapons, but it suffices to say that its probably the most outrageous japanese movie and definitely worth watching.
