Blu-ray Review - They Call Me Macho Woman
February 04, 2025
Hell hath no fury like a woman prevented from purchasing rural land. That's basically the vibe of 1989's "They Call Me Macho Woman," which pits a seemingly average person against a gang of drug manufacturers in the middle of nowhere. It's a classic set-up for exploitation cinema, but writer/director Patrick G. Donahue doesn't have much finesse when it comes to the actual war between good and evil. However, he does have a stunt team, with the endeavor managing to offer a few slam-bang moments of physical danger, and there's some general oddity when it comes to the creation of tools used to take lives. "They Call Me Macho Woman" is mostly clunky, with Donahue visibly struggling to generate screen danger, but in a B-movie way, there's fun to be had with the effort, which certainly tries to put on a violent show for viewers.
