Viewing Notes
Also known as HEROIC TRIO 2: EXECUTIONERS, this is the direct sequel to the first film with all three bad-ass heroines returning in their respective roles, as well as Anthony Wong and Lau Ching-wan reprising their roles (Wong actually has two roles, both with heavy makeup and masks, and both crazy characters, naturally).
This film finds our trio in a post-apocalyptic world with a water shortage and a crazy masked asshole (Wong of course!) out to control all the water. Hijinks ensue including some really fun wire work, exploding bodies, hands through chests, arms being ripped and blown off, etc.
Found this on Youtube, dubbed in what sounds like Polish or Italian maybe? No subtitles and it’s a compressed 4x3 presentation. There is a widescreen version on archive.org in the original language without subs as well, which is a much better version.
Regardless, still pretty watchable if you know the synopsis of the plot. I’d still pay good money for a remastered 2 disc set of this and HEROIC TRIO with proper subs, etc. Both movies really deserve a new release.
