Black Scorpion Summary
MPAA Rating: R
Director: Jonathan A. Winfrey
Genres: Action
Rating:
This B-movie from director Rodman_Flender (The_Unborn) was originally broadcast on Showtime's Roger_Corman_Presents series. Joan_Severance stars as a cop who becomes a leather-clad superhero named Black Scorpion when her father is murdered in a barroom shooting. The murder is part of a seemingly random crimewave engineered by an asthmatic villain called the Breathtaker, who wears a big metal suit like comic book bad-guy Dr. Doom. Breathtaker is planning to turn the whole city into his wheezing slaves by way of poisoned gas masks, and Severance must stop him. In between, she gets former car-thief Argyle (Saturday_Night_Live alumnus Garrett_Morris) to build her a super Scorpion-mobile and tries to keep her identity secret from former partner/lover Bruce_Abbott (Re-Animator). Robert Firsching, Rovi
