But the filming kept getting postponed and we got fed up hanging around Manila, so were unable to continue our acting careers!<br /><br />Gary Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118098779778491600.post-81968626835387908842015-11-08T09:01:46.322-08:002015-11-08T09:01:46.322-08:00Thanks, Gary.

I got killed in a fight scene - sliced through the stomach with a sword (unless they cut it). My girlfriend was one of the chained up witches, we were traveling through the Philippines and there was lots of film extra work there.<br /><br />GaryAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118098779778491600.post-57986905147873740182012-09-17T11:59:44.849-07:002012-09-17T11:59:44.849-07:00Good question.

But I think a more salient contrast is the fact that Darna doesn't seem to gain her abilities from some kind of latent girl power, but gets them instead by eating a space rock.

Though, for those keeping score at home, I do recall there being more instances of them being bared than what you mentioned. I mainly meant that reference ironically, given this film's somewhat conflicted approach to feminist themes.Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15890338576052689861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7118098779778491600.post-7966480406565499232012-08-30T09:16:50.921-07:002012-08-30T09:16:50.921-07:00Nice write-up.

It only has a split second flash of Barbara Patrick's tits as she gets out of the hot tub. Did you notice more on the version you watched? <br /><br />Even without the expected amount of nudity, I enjoyed THE SISTERHOOD. The ladies were very aggressive in the sword battles and adding assault rifles to the mix in the final 20 minutes kept things interesting. Rebecca Holden and Barbara Patrick seemed very confident firing M-16's Rambo style. The film lives up to its entertaining trailer.
