Ms. .45

Abel Ferrara's cult indie actioner plays like a distaff "Death Wish." Mute New York seamstress Thana (Zoë Tamerlis) is raped on her way home, then encounters another would-be attacker in her apartment. Killing the man with a paperweight and putting his dismembered remains in her refrigerator, the traumatized Thana uses his.45 handgun to patrol the city streets and dispense feminist vigilante justice. Peter Yellen, Editta Sherman also star. 80 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English (SDH); audio commentary; featurettes; bonus shorts "Zoe XO" (2004), "Zoe Rising" (2014); image gallery; theatrical trailer.
