Tough-as-nails yet suicidal Nina (Irene Giordano) and Andrea (Mauro
Cipriani) are sent to look for Anna (Maya Vakoulenko), who has disappeared
quite a while ago and left no clue, and neither the police nor a private
investigator, Paolo Vanni (Paolo di Gialluca) seem to have found the
slightest of trace of the girl ... which is quite suspicious, because Nina
finds a clue in no time: Anna has been moonlighting as a porn star. Andrea
soon finds a link between Vanni and Anna's producer, Cesare Mazza
(Gabriele Guerra), a man who has specialized in hiring girls from Eastern
Europe to rape them on his casting couch, while Nina first joins his
organisation undercover (and only narrowly escapes a rape in the process),
later she violently tortures the truth out of him - only to find out that
the producer has been selling his girls to a Satanist cult run by
hermaphrodite Marcus (Stefania Visconti) on a regular basis. The finale
has Nina, armed with a samurai sword, Andrea, and Greta (Adalgisa
Vavassori), the sister of Marcus's chosen one Maria (Silvia Milesi) -
actually an undercover agent -, go against Marcus and his gang of hooded
Satanists ... Ok, this might not be the most subtle of films,
but it's at the same time a celebration of drive-in/grindhouse movies of
old: The plot is pretty much your typical giallo, with enough outbursts of
sudden violence and naked breasts, quite besides genre clichées like
hooded villains and unlikely plottwists, to keep the genre fan happy, and
then you've got a chick with a samurai sword, Satanists, extended torture scenes and
plenty of sleazy undercurrents ... in other words, everything that made
grindhouse movies of yesteryear such guilty pleasures. Again, Nina:
Crazy Suicide Girl is not the most subtle of films ... it's just sooo
much fun to watch!
