Masked women in movies, tv-series, cosplay, comics, fan art and fan movies – With villainesses and heroines like Catwoman, Batgirl, Batwoman, Black Scorpion and Spider-gwen. Unmaskings included!
Well, a little spoiler in the title already? But otherwise you would ask why I would post it here 😉
In this video we have the two most interesting scenes from a not really remarkable movie.
So, enjoy the video!

A car chase!

Well, I do prefer masks that are actually identifiable as masks, since they usually cheat a lot to show unmaskings with these “another face”-masks.
I do enjoy the first scene since her unmasking transforms her from the scared secretary to the confident heroine she is in the movie (more or less).
To bad the villain knows about her secret as he finds her stealing his stuff. In my version he would find her there and they start to fight. At some point his hand grabs onto her face and damages her mask. Of course he gets curious and unmasks her in a long struggle revealing Chan Lee. A woman who he trusted to train his ninja tropps.
The newest Stargirl episode didn’t had much action.
Well, it had barely none to be honest. Stargirl wasn’t at all in the episode, but at least Wildcat got some screentime…even it was less than 90 seconds…..

[SPOILERS ahead, watch the episode first]
The episode title is “Brainwave” and that shows what this episode is about. Most of the episodes were focusing on one character so his/her origin story and to focus on him.
And that’s a little problem what I have with this show so far. Don’t get me wrong, I really like the show and especially enjoy all scenes with Stargirl and Wildcat. But now with 9 out of 13 episodes of season 1 aired…..the real story of the show JSA vs ISA hasn’t really moved forward since they are focusing so much on character introduction.
On one hand that’s a good thing, because you really get to know the characters. On the other hand the main storyline and the action comes too short.
And after episode 9 “Brainwave”…the next one is called “Brainwave Jr.”.
The scene with Wildcat was nice, even I really hate these mind reading abilities as Henry knew immediately that Yolanda is Wildcat 🙁
They really need to get him onto their side…otherwise they would have a massive problem.
However, it was an interesting episode as to see the background of Brainwave and how his son is handling it.
Also the dinner with Jordan aka Icicle was intense as one of the big villains was at the some table with Courtney.
No big surprise, Brainwave is finally awake now, and as he knows Stargirl secret as well……another big danger arises for the team.
And luckily, judging from the trailer for the next episode, we seem to get some action at least in the next one:
I watched these “American Ninja” movies as a kid and decided to check them out for masked women, and I did find some scenes!
In this flick, we have the american ninja and a woman infiltrating the HQ of the villain. He is already in costume and knocks out some guards outside. She get one of their outfits and becomes a ninja herself (her transformation isn’t shown in the movie).
Now they are in the base and wanna free her dad who gets used by the villain for his evil plans 😉

Here she is….

[Watch the video first, before you continue!]
Damn, she looks really smashing in the outfit and mask!
As usual, there are quite some things that could have been done better….but well, I’m happy about this scene!
A shame she wasn’t trained in any martial arts, would have been much cooler if she actually would participate in a fight.
On the other hand, we get a decent unmasking scene, even if it’s “only” a self unmasking.
There are no more scenes of her in mask.
They should make a series of new movie of American Ninja, this time with a woman! That would be awesome 🙂
Ok, her mask isn’t exactly an attractive one….BUT it does the job of concealing her face really good, especially in combination with that hood.
It’s a shame that the unmasking happens more or less off screen.
On the good side I liked the aspect of him holding onto her mask as he unmasked her.
And her surprised/shocked face right after the unmasking is a bonus as well!
I didn’t watch the whole episode so far, from what I understand by skipping through it, her folks see her as a murderer and thereby pursuing her relentless.
In the whole episode they try to convince the good guys to hand her over so they can kill her.
There are no other scenes with masked women in this one after that.

Wanna know from which episode of which TV show this is?
And now scenes 3 and 4 from the mystery movie which title I will reveal at the end of this post.
Our masked female vigilante tries to stop an evil guy who abducted 2 little girls!
Will she succeed? And who is actually under that mask?
Preview, Scene 3:
She knows how to make an entry!
Who will….
…win?

Preview, Scene 4:
Time to unmask!

And here is the video:

[SPOILERS ahead, watch the videos first!]
What strange weapon is that? No clue….
Damn, the detective showed up some seconds to early 😉
Would have been great to see her unmasking herself in front of the bad guy.
But at least she gets to unmask herself even if the cop already knew who she was.
In my version: He would have approached the vigilante who is still hurting from the bullets she got into her vest. He would grabbed onto her mask, she would struggle to keep it on, but is too weakened to stop him. And he would be surprised to see her unmasked face as he didn’t thought that this woman would be the vigilante.
This movie has actually quite a lot of scenes with a masked female vigilante.
And she takes no prisoners, she wants to kill some criminal scum!
Scene 1, Preview:
He has an evil plan…

For now I wanna keep the movie title a mystery, there is more from this movie, incl. the unmasking of the vigilante!
If you want to see more….let me know via comment here or on Youtube.

I have mixed feelings about these scenes. I really like that this masked vigilante really takes her secret identity very serious and conceals it very well.
Ok, the combination with that mask and the ski mask looks a bit…weird, but it works.
I’m not 100% sure but I think that you can see that they used a male stuntdouble in some of the action scenes. The loose outfit makes it rather easy as you often can hardly see if the vigilante is a woman or a man.
What’s pretty embarassing is the gun of the cop who gets a little electrified by her. You can clearly see that it isn’t a real gun with that barrel. It rather looks like a water gun from the front view. 😉
Another scene I can present thanks to a nice user!
In this one, we have some rich guy who cleary’s has some enemies that would like him to “disappear”.
He feels that he would be safe high up in his headquarter, but a masked woman sneaks closer and she is not a nice visitor…..
Preview:
He has a visitor!
What will happen?
Who is under that mask?

Well, not the nicest visitor for sure! 😉
As much as I like such masked, female assassins, It’s a pitty that we hardly see her (masked) face while she is in that costume.
And I would think it’s not the best idea to “hang around” a room, where you shoot an explosive arrow into it. The blast should be quite dangerous. But the idea behind this “indirect” attack is nice.
The “unmasking” is in this case a little ….odd….as she pulls off her complete (upper-)outfit with one pull, incl. her mask.
In my version she would have had battled some security guards as she was trying to escape. And these security guards would have been curious to see how is under that mask.
But she would have fought them off in the end.
Off course it’s a nice bonus when Tia Carrere undress and reveals such a bathing suit!
Sadly she doesn’t appear again in that ninja outfit in the episode.
This one was recommended to me by a nice user of this site some weeks ago….thanks again!
The video doesn’t have english audio, but I don’t know if an english version of this exists at all since it is a rather “small” french movie.
However there is little dialog in this one, so it doesn’t rally matter.
We have an attractive female cat burglar that sneaks into a museum…but one guard isn’t fooled by her little “distraction”.
Preview:
She takes out this guard!
And grabs the painting…
….but this guard has found her!
Who will win? Can she escape with her mask on and with her loot?

And here is the video:
–
The scene ends there, no more scenes with her in that catsuit in the movie.
What I really like about this one: She has to fight really hard to escape with her loot! The guard knows some martial arts and she is in real danger in both fight scenes.
He could knock her out or even UNMASK her in that fight….and that would be her end for sure!
I love the tension and intensity of these fight scenes.
Of course it would have been great if he would have been able to grab onto her mask….but no such luck.
–
Wanna know from which movie this was taken? Here you go:
The movie itself isn’t worth watching, even the very short scenes where the masked killer strikes are really bad.
BUT…..the movie does offer a fine final struggle with the masked villainess!
Please excuse the poor picture quality, there isn’t anything better than an VHS source available to this one. It is a very rare movie with only 33 votes om IMDB.
Preview:
There she is!
Shooting at the floor(?!)
Time to take a look under that mask!

And here is the video:

What I really like about this scene is the line: “Take off her mask!” and that she fights back as he wants to unmask her.
A real shame that the cowardly gangster shoots the unarmed woman. I think they are on the same side, but they decided to get rid of her at one point.
The unmasking is solid and without a cut. Too bad she wasn’t shown properly in that outfit before this scene.
In this one gorgeous Tia Carrere is after a golden cat statue….but so is a fully masked cat burglar!
Preview:
Tia Carrere wants this cat statue!
But this sexy cat burglar….
…wants it too!

And here is the video:

I didn’t cut antyhing from the cat burglar out of the video, it is not seen how she gets thrown out of the window. But it wasn’t by that guy, it was a curse that this golden statue emanates (if I understood it right, haven’t watched the whole episode).
Of course you might know what I don’t like about the video 😉
It’s a shame that we didn’t see the cat burglar unmasking herself or even better: watching her getting unmasked by Tia Carrere in a long struggle!
But she looks great in the catsuit and mask and she also wears sexy boots as well. And a catfight with a masked catburglar and Tia Carrere……is a great thing to have!
Funny that the guy tried to attack her with that shoe…..brilliant plan 😆
The way they shot the cat ears in front of the cat burglar, really good. Just looked like that ears would fit to her.

Funny how the tides have turned…..for most of the time it was easy to find stuff for my other blog frogwoman.org and more and more difficult to find stuff for this one.
Nowadays, that has turned completely, right now I have SO much stuff for this blog, and nearly nothing for frogwoman.org.

Wanna know from which episodes and TV show this is from?
By the way…the naked woman is a former victim of the strangler that has a “psychic connection” to the lead character.
There are more scenes of the masked strangler but only short flashbacks/visions that doesn’t show much.
Isn’t that a really great scene?
I love the struggle, and how she tries to get a good grip on the mask. And I love how the masked woman tries to prevent the unmasking and her facial expression as the mask finally comes off.
And it was quite a surprise that the strangler actually was a woman, since nothing had pointed in that direction. I am not even sure if that was the same actress under the mask in the whole scene. She is very tall, but in some shots it looks a bit like they used a stunt GUY….but not sure about it.
The movie itself is “just” ok, but this scene….has a really well done unmasking! 🙂
A nice user asked about a clip on Youtube, if I would know from which movie it was. The title already provided the actual (very common) title, but the wrong year.
I found out about the movie and the scene should be on this blog as well.
Story: Some kidnappers have kidnapped a boy from a wealthy family. But he isn’t as harmless as he has some evil powers….

Well, who is hiding under…
…this….
…mask?

Only a short scene, but pretty interesting!
We have a sexy, masked kidnapper, some “mask-talk” and an unmasking!
Well, and I couldn’t resist like he did…..I would “peek” to get a look at her unmasked face…. 😉
