looks like she has haity armpits lol

[camaleonte604]

sure she has! according to an historical view, could you imagine an ancient amazon wasting her time in shaving?

Behold the Pat Benatar school of Gladiator Combat.

Amazing movie for gladiatrix fans...the fight sequences are done fairly well, and there are many! The cutie in the above clip is the star for me, especially her final scene...

[camaleonte604]

You might concern to the scene when she is sentenced to death: she is tied to a pole and has her shirt ripped off by another girl, baring her back. Then a firing squad of amazons implement the sentence shooting arrows against her, but only one bad girl really aims to her, hitting her back at the heart level.

[julianapostata2]

Yes - that's the one. Great scene! The movie doesn't shirk away from the violence like most do - we see the arrow hit, her face grimaces, and she slumps, dead.

I was still sorry not to see her do her thing in the triangle of death though...maybe that would have been a more sporting way for her to check out!

Holy shit. I remember seeing this when I was a kid on the old black and white tv. For the last few years it has bugged me that I didn't know the title. Now finally I know what it was. The image of dead female bodies lying on top of each other left an pretty powerful impression on me I guess. I think Dolcett would understand. Anyway, thanks

The fight is kind of slow, but the production looks fascinating. What movie is this from?
