China O’Brien

Take cover, because it’s WOMEN OF ACTION Month at Mondo Mondays, featuring badass B-movies filled with femme-fueled fury that will really knock you out!

“She is the ultimate weapon!” Cynthia Rothrock is a tough martial arts instructor and big city cop who moves to a quaint little town for some peace and quiet, only to find out that the smaller the town, the bigger the trouble, as she runs for sheriff, battles organized crime, and busts the butts of too many mullet-wearing weirdos to count! Featuring an explosion of acid-washed denim and white sneakers, a beefy Australian martial arts fighting partner with perma-stubble and a gold chain addiction, junkyard kung fu battles, small town political corruption, rowdy rednecks begging to get their clocks cleaned, and innocent exercise equipment used as weapons of mass destruction, China O’Brien is like Walking Tall with a ponytail, all driven by the extreme awesomeness of Cynthia Rothrock, who literally can’t be stopped. From the director of Enter the Dragon! (Dir. by Robert Clouse, 1990, USA, 86 mins., Rated R)
