Devils Three aka Pay Or Die (1979)

Lucifer Devlin(Johnny Wilson) is a drug pushing crime boss. His own men kidnap his daughter in order to get in charge of his operations. Devlin is forced to call his arch-enemy Cleopatra Wong (Marrie Lee) to help him to get his daughter back. Devlin promises to turn himself in if she manages to succeed in her mission. Wong needs couple of reliable sidekicks and she hires Tony (Franco Guerro) and 300 pound psychic lady named Rotunda... This one is even crazier that the first Cleopatra Wong movie. Much more comedy in this one. Some of it seems little bit dated by now. Guerro is not playing the same character that he played in the first movie. This time his character is this over the top stereotyphical queer. When i first saw this Guerro's character in this movie i have to say that my jaw just dropped. He ain't no One Armed Executioner, i tell you that. Marrie Lee's fighting skills have improved since the first Cleo movie and the fighting scenes are much better in this one. Not as good as the first Cleopatra Wong movie, but still really entertaining and definitely worth the look. This one was also directed by Bobby A. Suarez.

They Call Her Cleopatra Wong (1978)

Cleopatra Wong (Marrie Lee) is a police woman who is put on a case to find crimals that are making counterfit money. Her investications lead her to monestry where the bad guys are running their counterfit operation by forcing the nuns to work for them.

Non-stop action rollercoaster ride. Lots of ass kicking performed by Marrie Lee. She was only seventeen when she auditioned for this movie, so she must have been something like 18 years old when they made this movie. She might not be the best martial arts performer but fighting scenes are still highly enjoyable. In her interview she says that she performed lots of the stunt by herself. She was offered 10 film contract by Bobby when her 3 years contract with him was ending, but she declined. Sadly she made only one film, "Target Scorpion", after her last film "Devil's Three" with Bobby.

All in all, really an upbeat movie.Well, movie that has guys dressed up as nuns and killing everyone in sight and blowing shit up, what else could it be than whole lotta fun.
