Rating: 2.0
Negating Factor
The attackers -- the so-called attackers -- in this film could have avoided all subsequent revenge (or even problems with police, courts etc) if each had said to the woman, "You better get some ice on that" after completing the act. That admonition (some might call it counselling) renders inoperative all suggestions of rape or assault, allowing the perpetrator to skate away free -- and even, in some instances, glean widespread support from society, as happened in one particular Arkansas rape case. In this film, however, the perpetrators did not skate away scott free. Rather, they experienced justice.It was startling to find this film cast in DVD format, as it would normally be considered one of those old cheap throwaways, but obviously the producers thought otherwise. Enjoy -- and always remember the magic everything-is-okay, no-problem-at-all phrase following such an assault: You better get some ice on that.
