A rape/revenge flick centered around Reagan from The Exorcist (Linda Blair) seeking vengeance on the The Scars who brutally raped and battered her dead sister. A serious set of Charlies on Blair.

If you see only one movie about Linda Blair killing rapists with a crossbow, make it this one.

Superb 80s vigilante trash classic--Excellent exploitation flick is one of Linda Blair's finest moments!!

Despite the subject matter this is a joyous piece of trashy 80's nostalgia. The vile storyline is wonderfully interrupted by several bouts of unnecessarily necessary nude/semi-clothed catfights and shower scenes AND catfights in shower scenes. Vintage college sexploitation and violent rape-revenge that's a bizarre blend of Abel Ferrara's 'Ms.45' and 'Please sir!' with a hint of 'Porky's'.

Finally got to check out this exploitation classic after picking up the Arrow UK DVD awhile back, and I can happily say that ti was worth the wait. Sleazy and fun, this one hits all of the right notes as Linda Blair goes apeshit crazy on a revenge spree after her sister is gang-raped by gang-members at the beginning of the film.

Brenda: Too bad you're not double-jointed.
Fargo: Why?
Brenda: Because if it were, you'd be able to bend over and kiss your ass goodbye!
Suitably trashy 80's revenge film but it's too slow and has a disappointingly low body count.

These streets really are savage. This reminds me of a 70s exploitation movie turned 80s teen flick, I really liked it.

80's exploitation at it's finest. If you like blood, boobs, and violence, this one's for you. Linda Blair never looked finer.

Tough and very violent exploitation film with Linda Blair and the Satins waging war with rival gang the Scars. Covers all the bases for exploitation fare, including a few fine montages with appropriate score. John Vernon does little but lecture as the school principal.

I love the film's air of trashy fun but the build up for the final showdown was too long which made it feel kind of anti-climactic. Still, good times all around. I love this era of exploitation.

Did it work? Nah.
This is one of those movies that are best left unseen. How this movie ever made it to the cinemas is a conundrum to me. If I were able to give it an negative score, I'd have done so - but alas...
This is an 80's trash movie when at its worst. The story starts off well enough, but then it becomes very uneven with acting that is so over the top that one gets a nosebleed. To make up for this, they makers put in a bunch of over-aged "teenage" girls flashing their tits and arses, hoping it would cover the holes in this badly thought-through story.

Old school low budget revenge film starring Linda Blair and a bunch of unknowns from `83 (and I prefer unknowns too) this film is tits! Bad script + awful characters + gallons of cheese + Linda Blair... What's not to love. Highly recommended for a good time.

This was awful, and so very OTT. But it had some memorable hyper realistic characters, that its a film that cant be ignored. So very 80s, but better for it.

It's "The Satins" versus "The Scars" in this rape-revenge/action-drama which see's the busty Linda Blair lead her all-girl gang in a dangerous tit-for-tat feud with a gang of street punks which descends into rape and murder. It's all very 80s, cheesy and trashy. The rape scene is not as graphic as other that have caused controversy, but it's still an unpleasant viewing which the UK censors have just passed fully uncut. Overall it's really quite enjoyable, especially for fans of 80s movies.

Gloriously trashy. Linda Blair is a terrible actress, but she gives it her all, and though the movie keeps stalling with scenes that have nothing to do with the plot, it always remains a lot of fun.

What happens when "Even the cops are a bunch of pussies"? Linda Blair takes the law into her own hands to seek revenge on a gang of scumbag punks that raped her deaf/mute younger sister in this nasty little exploitation gem from the 80s. But be warned to have a bar of soap handy to lather yourself up while watching this film cause you'll feel pretty dirty afterwards.
