Plots(1)
After a hard night partying, kickboxer Sabrina (Zoe Bell) wakes up to find herself in an underground bunker. Soon she realizes that this bunker is actually a modern day coliseum of sorts, where, along with 48 other women, they are condemned to fight each other to the death. The game organizers (Doug Jones and Sherilyn Fenn), turn their kidnapping victims into violent femmes by threatening to kill the women's loved ones should they refuse to participate in this deathly sport, all for the amusement of unseen spectators. Each of these reluctant warriors has something to lose, but only one will remain when the game is done. (Koch Media)

Actually, I have to make a big effort to give it at least two stars for the flawless technical aspect. Raze is nothing but a shallow spectacle and its contents, and the very purpose of its existence, can be described as “women fighting in tank-tops”. Because why? Because we fucking want it, that’s why. Those who enjoy this – well. For me, it devalues horror movies.

Calling a movie sexist, focused only on heroines' breasts, is a bit shortsighted, and I believe this is a film that deserves attention. Women are thrown into a cruel situation where they either decide to survive or die. I like similar storylines, and this one works well for me. Yes, it may be simpler in terms of the plot, but it beautifully showcases what beasts humans actually are. And I'm not referring to the women who fight each other to the bitter end.
