Ms. 45 [Blu-ray]

From director Abel Ferrara, known for The Driller Killer and King of New York, comes the terrifying revenge-thriller Ms. 45 (also known as Angel of Vengeance). This film offers a devastating depiction of sexual violence and female rage, anchored by a stunning central performance from Zoë Lund.

Set in New York, 1980, the story follows mute seamstress Thana, who, after being raped on her way home and then assaulted by a burglar, fights back, bludgeoning the attacker and taking his gun. Fueled by trauma, Thana begins to exact violent justice on the sexual threats she perceives throughout the city.
