Review of Ferocious Female Freedom Fighters (1982) by Shaun B — 12 May 2009

I haven't actually seen a movie like this since "What's Up, Tiger Lily?" That is, one where a US studio picks up an obscure Asian kung-fu flick, and completely re-dubs over the dialog with no concern for what's actually being said.

When I first sat down to watch this, I had no idea that's what I was in store for...I also didn't realize that this particular re-dubbing was done by Troma. And of course, being Troma, a lot of the gags are just crude for the sake of being crude.

But amazingly, a fair number of the jokes are actually pretty funny. Troma took a plot that already appeared ridiculous and made it even more so, and the result is surprisingly entertaining in a low-brow sort of way.

If you can stand the insanity and toilet humor, you'll probably get some laughs out of "FFFF." Booze always helps though. :p.
