The Muthers

The Muthers

Out of the steaming slave markets come the ravaging sea-savages...the Muthers!

Directed by Cirio H. Santiago

Produced by Dimension Pictures

197683 min4.7 / 10

A pulpy 1970s exploitation action film that blends women-in-prison and pirate-adventure tropes with blaxploitation sensibilities, driven by rescue-mission momentum and visceral action rather than depth.

A band of female pirates go undercover at a prison camp on a coffee plantation to rescue their leader's sister.
