Description:

From the land that pioneered the worn-panties-in-a-vending-machine concept. Many film aficionados and critics believe Seven Samurai is the crown jewel of Japanese cinema, but that’s surely because they’re unaware of “Naked Women Who Put A Beating On A Guy” and this proud production of “Lady Ramboh…Kill You: In My Justice”.

I can’t say I followed the plot too closely. (I can’t say I was completely sober either, which is viewing advice I pass along to others). The lady of the title is an agent of some sort who, in the course of the movie, gets revenge on the goons that have abused and murdered her friends (or sisters, I’m not sure). Also, in the line of duty, she battles a crime syndicate para-military operation in the jungle. My favorite among Lady Ramboh’s adversaries is a yummy Eurasian babe. This femme fatale first appears topless in a all-too-brief dripping wet pool scene, and later as a female commando..and there’s no doubt she received her commando training on the set of a Ilsa movie.

*For those, like myself, who do not understand a syllable of Japanese, there’s no need to worry. The producers were considerate enough to include many scenes of exposition in completelyincoherent English. (I even re-watched these scenes after the Sake wore off). The numerous English speaking scenes fall into the following categories: A) Non-English speaking actors reciting English as if in a Kindergarten play. B) English dialogue, while recited clearly, makes as much sense as a google foreign language translation, and C) English recited by actors that are either not very good at phonetics, or simply don’t try very hard. It’s hard to tell exactly what they’re saying, but I’m pretty sure it’s in a language not spoken on this planet.
The overall effect of this painfully tortured English is like watching an extended Norm Crosby double talk routine. Most of the English language scenes make as much sense as the movie’s full English title. (The short Youtube clip below captures some choice head scratching conversation).

Lady Ramboh…Kill you: In my Justice comes from the same production house responsible for Female Teachers Punishment Squad (Volume 1) Female Teachers Punishment Squad Volume 2 I don’t know the name of the lead actress, but I believe Lady Ramboh is also the punisher-in-chief from those movies. While shot and released on video, the production looks as polished as a decently produced soap opera. I acquired this from a Japanese collector who tells me this title was released in Japan on the SVHS format, which is roughly equal in quality to laserdisc . My upload comes from a transfer to DVD-R.

Lady Ramboh features several very pretty girls, with a few topless scenes. There are frequent gunfights and stuff getting blown up. There’s also a rare spoken English dialect that should be of interest to the linguists in our community. Overall, this is cheesy and goofy fun from the Land of the Rising Sun.
