Severin Films rescues GWENDOLINE (review)

The director of EMMANUELLE and THE STORY OF O goes a little softer for this big screen comic book adventure in which convent girl Gwendoline arrives in Hong Kong in search of her archaeologist father and needs the wiles of her maid Beth and the brawn of hunky smuggler Willard to face a variety of challenges from a jungle tribe to a lost city of warrior women.  Tawny Kitaen, Brent Huff, and Zibou star.
