Phoenix the Warrior (1987)

aka She Wolves of the Wasteland

How bad is it? It's about number 30 in my list of favorite cavewoman movies.
Should you see it? It's worth seeing once.


There will never be another "Wild Women of Wongo," but that hasn't kept filmmakers from trying to create one more cavewoman movie. This one's post-apocalyptic, so the babes get to use automatic weapons, which is kind of novel. There's an ugly ancient priestess who possesses the only man left on the planet and it's up to a female Mad max-type to rescue him from the priestess and her over-acting sidekick Persis Khambatta. There's plenty of breast jiggling, a smidgen of nudity and a ton of bad dialog (though nothing of the quality of "shoot anything with hair that moves!").
