Baise-Moi (2000) 5/10

Starring : Karen Bach, Raffaela Anderson
Director : Virginie Despentes & Coralie
Running Time : 77 mins

After being brutally raped by a gang of men, two women - Nadine (Bach) and Manu (Anderson) decide to join forces and roam around France murdering those involved in sordid sexual antics, all the while trying to punish those they feel have ruined their lives.

This was a pretty terrible movie - the characters start off seemingly killing those that deserve it, but soon move on to kill anyone they feel like. The ending was good but rushed, and the sex scenes are pretty close to the bone, but there's nothing too outlandish in this movie and I found it hard to see what was so special to get this banned in so many places.

You are too kind. This was a non event of a film. If it had not been very publicly banned it would disappeared without trace.

True - hell, I wouldn't have even seen it if you hadn't have loaned me a copy.
