Ms. 45
Synopsis: Abel Ferrara’s (Bad Lieutenant, King Of New York) 1981 revenge thriller classic Ms. 45 follows a mute garment-district seamstress – played by the late model/actress/musician/screenwriter Zoë Lund – who after falling victim to multiple unspeakable assaults, ignites her one-woman homicidal rampage against New York City’s entire male population. Now remastered in HD from the original negative materials, Ms. 45 returns to theaters this December and debuts on DVD and Blu-ray uncut for the first time in North America.

Quotes
Had Herzog seen it, he might have recognized Ferrara as a fellow genius, and one as weird as himself. - Peter Keough, Boston Globe
The sexual politics of Ms. 45 are blunt and easy to read, and the picture is riotously cathartic. - Stephanie Zacharek, Village Voice
