I’ve been wanting to see this film ever since I first heard about it. BITCH SLAP promises to be a fun homage to exploitation films of yesteryear, particularly movies like FASTER PUSSYCAT, KILL, KILL – a personal favorite. Plus this movie features a rather unusual reunion on film of the HERCULES – XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS lead cast members, as Kevin Sorbo appears as a tough guy, and Lucy Lawless and Renee O’Connor play a couple of nuns. Heh. The lovely Zoe Bell is in here too – God almighty, what more do you want?! Well Bigfanboy.com is hosting a special contest where you could win some very, very cool goodies that tie in with the film. We’ve got a bitchin’ prize pack including 1 full-size movie poster, 1 signed mini-sheet poster (just the girls), 1 unsigned poster, and the full BITCH SLAP collectible 11-card set. Details on how to enter at the bottom.
Synopsis:
Bitch Slap is a post-modern, thinking man’s throwback to the “B” Movie/Exploitation films of the 1950’s – 70’s as well as a loving, sly parody of the same. Inspired by the likes of Dragstrip Girl; Faster Pussycat, Kill, Kill; Kung Fu Nun and the pantheon of Blaxploitation films, Bitch Slap will mix girls, guns, outrageous action and jaw-dropping visuals with a message… don’t be naughty!
At its core, Bitch Slap follows three bad girls (a down-and-out stripper, a drug-running killer and a corporate powerbroker) as they arrive at a remote desert hideaway to extort and steal $200 Million in diamonds from a ruthless underworld kingpin. Things quickly spin out of control as allegiances change, truths are revealed, other criminals arrive for the score, the fate of the world hangs in the balance and they are forced to confront a villain much worse than they ever expected… themselves. It’s the ultimate morality tale as, one by one, they realize the whole she-bang was a set-up and one of them may not even be human…
What also makes Bitch Slap different is a complicated “B” story device that runs throughout the film to illuminate character, backstory and relationship histories not previously revealed. Like the film Memento, these scene flashbacks take place in reverse, so by the end of the film, you have a wholly different take on who these women are and why they are behaving so badly. Bet you never saw THAT in Jailbait Babysitter!
So grab your popcorn and fasten your safety belt. With “Cult Classic” written all over it, Bitch Slap is gonna be one wild ride…
