AKA: Perawan Disarang Sindikat Review By: David Austin
Virgins from Hell kicks off in grand fashion with a veritable army of busty biker chicks in leather short-shorts whooping ass on a gambling parlor, tearing around on dirt bikes, and crashing through walls in battle jeeps adorned with skulls-and-crossbones. It’s as good as it sounds. Most people probably won’t need to know more than that to decide if this is the right movie for them.
VFH is a pure product of the ‘80s, a bastard child of the Roger Corman Filipino women-in-prison (WIP) films, and Golan and Globus’s patented low-budget Cannon cheesefests like American Ninja. Indonesian artisans added their own touches, ratcheting up the gore while combining obviously exploitative subject-matter with a demure ban against nudity. This is the kind of movie where the girls have catfights and shower together, but do it in their bathing suits.

Suzzanna, the Queen of Indonesian Horror, died on October 15 at the age of 66. While most of her big films were in the 1970s and 1980s, her career had been enjoying a bit of a revitalization of late, with Mondo Macabro’s release of her Queen of Black Magic and some recent roles in Indonesian television and film.
