88 FILMS BLU RAY RELEASE: The Inspector Wears Skirts (1988)

Released in the U.S. as Top Squad, this Wellson Chin film has a group of women called The Banshee Squad, who are being trained by Madame Wu (Sibelle Hu) to be an unstoppable police force. It’s the same thing Mr. Kan (Stanley Fung) is doing nearby with Tiger Group, an all-male commando squad. Of course, there are going to be hijinks between the two groups.

Wu has issues with her recruits —  May (Kara Hui), Amy (Sandra Kwan), Jean (Ellen Chan) Karen (Ann Bridgewater), Amin (Lee Pooi-Ling) and Betty (Regina Kent) — who just want to get with the men. Well, she does as well, but she’s at least more quiet about it. She has to bring in an American CIA agent — Madame Law (Cynthia Rothrock) — to get the girls combat ready for their first mission.

You know that I’m going to love a Hong Kong action movie that is trying to be Police Academy. If this sounds like something you’d like, well…it’s pretty awesome.

Extras include commentary by Frank Djeng, interviews with Rothrock and Chin, alternate titles, trails and more. Get it from MVD.
