Ms .45

In this cult classic, a mute seamstress named Thana is brutally raped twice in one day. She then takes justice into her own hands, arming herself with a .45 caliber pistol and prowling the streets of New York City at night, randomly killing any man who tries to pick her up. As her body count rises, Thana becomes a vigilante, targeting men who mistreat women, and her actions spark a wave of panic throughout the city. Will she be able to exact her revenge without getting caught, or will her crusade ultimately lead to her downfall?
