Isabelle (Isabelle Stephen) is an exchange student from Sweden who
wants nothing more than to have a little fun when she's picked up by Big
Dan (Jan Pivon), but her definition of fun and Dan's differ considerably,
because before long, he has her drugged, then he and his mates (Dan
Veilleux, Costa Alexandrakis, Ivan Judd) gangrape her and finally just
throw her out into the streets, just like a piece of dead meat. Thanks
to the kindness of strangers, Isabelle finds herself in her bed the next
day, but slowly it dawns upon her what happened the other day. She goes to
Big Dan's bar to confront him and at least get an apology out of him, but
he only ridicules her ... bad move, because now she wants revenge, and
while Isabelle herself might only be a weak girl, she has some dark powers
that soon enough put her in touch with the devil (Melantha Blackthorne),
who sends her four she-demons (Suzi Lorraine, Kerri Taylor, Marie-Claire
Benoît, Penelope Jolicoeur) to help her lure her tormentors to her
dungeon where she can torture them in various bloody ways and kill them
(she even goes so far as to rape Big Dan in a scene that defies
deescription). Thing is, after she has fulfilled her revenge, the Devil
wants more souls, otherwise Isabelle will be sent to hell for all eternity
... Eventually, Isabelle finds herself in a strait jacket, relating her
story to a psychiatrist (Michael Brunet), but her dark powers ultimately
help her to put the psychiatrist into the strait jacket ... The
basic premise of this film might be less than innovative, but it is told
with a certain degree of macabre irony. Plus, every time teh film seems to
fall prey to genre clichés, the script takes a turn towards the
unexpected, like the sudden inclusion of the supernatural or the whole
psychiatrist subplot, giving a whole new direction to a basic
rape-and-revenge story. Add to this the well-paced direction that expertly
balances shocks and storytelling and you've got a pretty fine movie. By
