Five Western girls are kidnapped by Chinese pirates and sold to a brothel. While they are being trained to become prostitutes, a couple of local citizens take mercy on them and plots their escape by teaching them kung-fu. The five scantily-clad girls, using their newfound martial arts skills then fight their way to freedom.
This movie rocks. Very attractive 70’s chicks fight it out against evil chinese guys. This movie is highly entertaining and makes little sense. The german director was also responsible for most parts of the infamous german sexploitation series SCHULMAEDCHEN REPORT, aka SCHOOL GIRL REPORTS in the early till late 70’s.

Gotta love those multi-genre mash-ups , especially when they are entertaining or off the wall . . . !
Haha I didn’t even know that Hofbauer also did some co-op’s with HK directors. Bizarre as fuck, must have been great fun to hang around the set during the shooting of this “masterpiece”!
Well, got around to watching this, and it’s pretty bad . . . though still fun, if you’re in the right frame of mind. (Among these East-West co-op productions, “The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires” (a.k.a. “The Seven Brothers Meet Dracula”) is by far the better genre mix. But there’s probably — I hope — nothing else quite like this. So very racially and sexually inappropriate by today’s standards, it would never be made by major production entities of recent years.
The premise is pretty ridiculous, the dialog is laughable — but it’s hard to be sure how much of the latter was intentional. Funny in itself just hearing all the Chinese actors dialog being rendered in German.
