The story follows city woman Susan Morris (Debra Sweaney), who decides to escape her banal urban life and goes looking for a house in the country.

Unfortunately, she's taken prisoner by a group of savage drug smugglers, headed by the ruthless Mongo (Brian Oldfield).

After escaping their clutches, Susan is forced to transform herself into a fearsome warrior and exact her revenge on Mongo and his evil henchmen.

[citation needed] TV Guide sees in the film a "Troma thriller (a whole genre of humorously sub-"B" movies)".

Yes, it makes little or no sense, in particular her sudden transformation from plucky but largely ineffective heroine [who can’t even stab someone in a way that causes them more than moderate discomfort] into a warrior woman, capable of embedding a shiny axe in your head from 15 paces.
