Due to unforeseen circumstances, we have a change of plans from our originally planned show on December 16. Instead, OFX partner Keithan Smith presents to you Female Prisoner #701: Scorpion, one of the direct inspirations for Quentin Taratino’s Kill Bill saga. If you’re fresh off the Whole Bloody Affair ready to support women’s wrongs and dish up some cold ass revenge, be seated for this one.
This “women-in-prison” exploitation flick features Kaji Meiko, who would later star as the titular protagonist in Lady Snowblood, a woman set up by her lover and unjustly imprisoned. Trapped in the ultra-misogynistic prison complex, she teams up with other female convicts to enact an outrageous plan of revenge that would go on to inspire the story of The Bride in Kill Bill.
