dustin d Beast Stable, the third installment in the Female Prisoner Scorpion series, delivers some fine exploitation ideas, but has about two too many incest scenes. It is the most disturbing film in the series, without being as gratuitous. The plot could have used a little more direction, as most of the second act feels aimless. Awesome grand finale, though. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The series really should have finished here and in my eyes it did. This is a quality ending to the trilogy (the least said about Grudge Song the better) it is also probably the nastiest of the Scorpion films. The opening scene on the subway sets the tone. The revenge is so sweet and the ending is immense. Shame they tarnished its legacy by making a fourth, thankfully Shunya Ito wasn't involved in it. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I know this is the third, and having not seen the second I was a bit lost. It's not too difficult to follow, but there were some things I had to figure out on my own. It doesn't quite have the visual flare of the first movie (though it has its moments) and the story isn't as interesting. Scorpion got her revenge in the first movie, and here it feels like things are just happening to happen. It's okay, but not as good as the first. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Ito finishes his trilogy with some impressive directing. Inverted colors, tilts, and a great bar scene with image skipping are the highlights. The visual effects leave much to be desired, especially the crow, but it is more than 40 years old. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Un p'tit peu moins audacieux visuellement que le précédent mais toujours dans le même ton décalé, Matsu le scorpion est toujours en cavale et après une fuite in extremis dans le métro, elle trouve refuge chez une prostitué qui se tape (à contrecoeur, mais quand même) son débile de frère au point d'être enciente de lui !! Dans sa fuite en avant, Matsu va croiser le chemin d'une vieille connaissance, rancunière qui va lui faire payer le mauvais traitement qu'elle a subit en prison. Cet épisode va assez loin car on y voit même une courte scène d'avortement, de chien qui bouffe le bras du pauvre flic que Matsu a découpé dans le métro et à la fin, la relation entre Yuki et son frère devient même consensuelle (la vache !!!!). Même si Matsu est dehors, elle est toujours enfermé, son visage est placardé partout alors elle se terre soit chez Yuki, ensuite la maquerelle l'enferme dans une cage à corbeau, elle se réfugie par la suite dans les égouts et enfin, elle retourne en prison incognito afin de régler une vieille affaire. La prison est partout pour elle, mais elle ne reste enfermée nulle part car elle est insaisissable ! Le dernier épisode réalisé Shunya Ito, je me demande si le suivant (et dernier joué par Meiko Kaji) sera à la hauteur ! Celui-là, comme les deux premiers, se regarde toujours avec le même plaisir, c'est un film qui ose beaucoup de choses, dans la forme comme dans le fond, et qui bénéficie toujours d'une très bonne bande son y compris le célèbre thème, indissociable de la saga !! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member The third in the Scorpion series is definitely slower in pace than the first two, that is until the final 3rd of the movie. What can you say about Meiko Kaji that hasn't been said before - she's brilliant as the anti-heroine. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
