that and plan 9 are always in the bottom 5 worst movies of all time. i had to watch both as a moive fan to see what all the comments were about. i saw it on some cable channel like Drive In Movie of the week. May have fallen sleep and missed the exciting ending. I assume it is a revenge flick where the woman is abused for 90 minutes and then kills all the bad guys in the last 10 minutes as she is naked and unarmed and they have machetes and ak-47s.
