Lovely but Deadly

Warning: Spoilers
Mary Ann "Lovely" Lovitt (Lucinda Dooling, The Alchemist, Surf II) has gone back to school to get revenge for the drug overdose death of her brother. Yes, twentysomething teenagers, martial arts, bad drugs and more await in this film directed by David Sheldon, the writer of Grizzly and the director of Devil Times Five. He also co-wrote this with Lawrence David Foldes (Young Warriors) and Patricia Joyce.

Stay for fistfights with cheerleaders in the locker room and an appearance - as one of the bad guys! - by former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rick Moser as drug dealing football player Mantis Managian (he even dates Pamela Jean Bryant from H. O. T. S.). Mel Novak is his boss!

Dooling is great in this and I've seen it described as a white girl version of Coffy, which pretty much says it all.
