This one was ….as well…. recommended to me several times over the years, and it’s time to make a post about it!
The last 2 Sundays, I posed about a woman in sci-fi armor; now we go one step further.
Three years after RoboCop, this movie came out…. some sort of (cheap) female version.

She is ready…
…for some action!
Who is under that mask?

I made a cut during the “getting into costume” scene to hide her face so she wouldn’t be revealed to you early 😉
Yeah, it’s a cheap rip-off, but the costume is pretty cool.
And she takes her safety pretty seriously. I like that she actually uses that shield over her lower face here and there.
Would make sense if she used it all the time in action… but the producers wanna show some sexy lips 😉 … and I guess it’s hard to breathe with that thing down.
She only gets into the suit in the middle of the movie, and sadly, no real secret identity issues arise.
I do like that they didn’t overdo it and put female plastic breasts on her armor to make her look more “feminine” 😆
I had to cut down some scenes… so the video wouldn’t be too long.
Well, quite a lot of interesting scenes in this …cheap… action flick!
I haven’t seen the whole movie…yet… but I certainly will do to fully understand what is going on.
Her first outfit is weird.. but very interesting.
From what I understand so far, this woman isn’t with the good guys (at first) but also isn’t a villainess.
I don’t know why she is masked in the first place. Seemingly, it’s more to actually protect herself instead of protecting her identity… but I will know more soon.
At first, you can’t basically know that it is a woman under the mask.
She is running around with that weird rain poncho(?!?), at first so she is a random masked figure at first.
The scene with the rocket launcher is quite funny… oh boy! No budget and the physics…are troublesome 😉
Then, with the rain poncho gone (why was her character wearing that? :lol:), the audience can now see more of her, so the figure looks rather like a woman than a guy.
I LOVE that the guy tries to unmask her, even though the scene is verrrry short….but with some “mask talk” as I like to call it.
Such attempted unmaskings are quite rare… sadly.
But she defends her secret identity, and the fight goes on.
And the fight is quite solid, especially for such a movie.
Hilarious how all those folks manage to miss both of them completely with these guns… at this range. Damn!
The self-unmasking is …lame! Very quick… and not dramatic. No buildup to that.
But we do get to see her in another mask! That is verrrrry rare!
I like how she uses the mask to fool the guy and escape.
Ok, the mask wouldn’t work (no seal) in combination with the balaclava… a common mistake… but it does look great for sure!
The guy should realize that immediately.
Also, he should wonder why the clothes are so awfully baggy for her… but ok, it’s better not to think too much about such movies 😉
That epic mask combo would be so awesome for a dramatic 2-part unmasking struggle…. but no luck.
But at least we get a nice self-unmasking on screen.
All in all, this crappy movie offers quite a lot with kick-ass women, will edit this post after I have seen the whole thing.
A longer video without that typical insane Russian overdub, a proper text, and finally some title info!
In this one, we have a masked female thief who gets caught…. 🙂

Not often do you see a masked woman fight, especially not with another woman! A nice treat for starters 🙂
Well, I only know the thief from this scene… but she isn’t wearing gloves on her heist? Not the smartest move 😆
Also, her getaway car is that fancy red sports car? Hmh, also seems like a rather bad move…
Perhaps that context is explained in the full episode….
But she does take her disguise seriously and is well masked… and she doesn’t take her mask off immediately after the heist on her way back, that’s also a plus.
Their fight is nice, and I like how she manages to escape after she is down.
Rather uncool how easily he then catches her.
I do like that he unmasks her at gunpoint; that’s better than self-unmasking.
And that unmasking makes a nice reveal in combination with the dialogue.
Maybe I will see the full episode in the next few days to get the full context.
Let’s start with a scene that is unlisted on my YouTube channel, as it doesn’t contain a masked woman (but it’s important to understand the following one):
Damn, that was intense and sexy as hell. (as her outfit)
I think the fact that they were at the funeral “celebration” (that happened downstairs) was the only reason they didn’t go “further” than that 😉
I hope she continues to deal with her trauma in the next episodes by putting on a sexy costume and mask and living out her dark fantasies 😉
Even that might be too spicy for the producers.
I am already surprised, though, that they made this scene… that might be “too much” for a lot of folks already 😆 who are complaining now ( I guess).
And by the way: She is such a sexy character in the show in general!
Most of the time she is wearing a short skirt, heels, and pantyhose (like in the video above)… such a welcome sight in the current female fashion world of oversized blazers and sneakers.
This scene happens at the very end of the last episode of the season:

She can’t…
…resist anymore!
And put on the mask!

Ok, some backstory from season 1 of the show. That mask belonged to a crazy serial killer.
He was strangling her and nearly killed her.
She was already quite twisted with some darkness in her.
And now she is fully giving in to her dark side for the first time.
I know, this scene in itself isn’t a burner, but it’s a great promise of things to come 🙂
It’s safe to say that we will see more of her in that mask in the next season, which will come out next year.
Maybe she designs a mask of her own… and hopefully she puts on a stunning costume on as well.
The season did a good job in building her up as a villainess, and I hope we will get to see plenty of her next season 😉
This season, she was the sexy psycho doc, and I hope we get to see more of her dark side when she lives it out in a mask and costume.
