The box to this film gives the following description: During World War II, the Japanese did many inhumane experiments on the prisoners in Southeast Asia. Since they were unable to escape and had nothing to lose, a group of female prisoners, with the help of two undercover intelligent members of the Allied Forces, started a fierce battle against the Japanese Army. Although the Tai Seng video claims to have English subtitles, I sure couldn't find them. The description may be accurate, but all I witnessed was some Asian POW's being forced to do exercises on a beach. The camera and guards linger on the squats and thrust like some cheesy 80's work out video. The gals wear tattered prison rags at night, and crime fighter looking outfits during the day. There are 2 catfights, one whipping, and no nudity. Oh, and there is a neat gattlin gun at the end.
