Norifumi Suzuki's 1973 grindhouse classic Sex and Fury features two of the queens of exploitation cinema, one from the East (Reiko Ike) and one from the West (Christina Lindberg.)
I absolutely love this film but I have one little quibble with it - I've always thought Reiko Ike was too "soft" for this role. Don't get me wrong, I think she does an outstanding job at naked swashbuckling and ass kicking. It's just that I wonder if someone "leaner and meaner" (although she does look pretty damn lean in that bottom picture) might be more convincing: someone like Meiko Kaji (who would never agree to it because of the nudity) or Reiko Ike's pinky violence co-star Miki Sugimoto. Or maybe I just think Meiko and Miki are hotter.
Anyway here's a video from Sex & Fury with Christina Lindberg and Reiko Ike featuring a lot of the sex but not so much of the fury.
