This is one of the dumbest movies ever made. Period. They expect us to believe that the same sweet, lovable, innocent little girl repeatedly allows herself to be raped. To what end? To get tea and sympathy? Most of the fights are laughable if you can get past that. And then there is the big grindhouse horror movie payoff. This movie is only for die hard Johnny Chang fans to see once--after which, this film must be destroyed.

OH MY GOD! This is one of the best kung fu films ever made...

This film is not only a kung fu film but also a slasher horror film at that. In this movie there is this chick who gets raped constantly, and every time she gets raped, the rapists are stalked by a creature elusive from the screen, making ambient screeching sounds then killing the rapists vehemently. Then it is revealed that the chick is the killer, but subconsciously, 'cause she transforms into a mutant mantis and she can't control the beast within her. She appears in full mantis attire near the end of the flick. It's silly but it works very well and is quite entertaining I MIGHT ADD!!!!

The kung fu action is actually quite good; a mixture of weapons, hand-to-hand, and some bizarre crap like the porcupine character with spikes on his back of the She-Mantis.

This film will not please everyone. I mean maybe the concept of a mutant mantis will not please those who take their (kung fu) films more seriously. This film will only please cult, b-movie, exploitation film lovers in general.

So, if you like a lot of rape, a mutant she-mantis, good kung-fu action, and a somewhat consistent story this film will interest thee. Not recommended to serious film lovers.

Also Shek Tien is in this as a lead villain and he plays a serious role (gasp!). More insanity for this film.

This movie was okay until it got close to the end. I think this was the first sci-fi martial arts movie that I have ever seen. I don’t want to spoil this movie, but it was very cheesy with a half-woman/half-mantis. The fight scenes were okay until the mantis woman was revealed. I thought that was way over the top. They could have skipped that. I can say this was one of the few movies that I have seen that I truly rated a 1 star. Don't rush to buy this movie. It can wait.
