When reviewing a film like Lady Terminator, the temptation is to simply transcribe the entire picture, so rife is it with priceless examples of purely ludicrous and nonsensical dialog.

I love the tagline for this movie. "First she mates, then she terminates."
It's a wild crazy movie. It was available at one stage in a two-movie set from Mondo Macabro, paired with Dangerous Seductress. Which is also a lot of fun.
I like Dangerous Seductress too, but it doesn't hold a candle to Lady Terminator. That might be because while, like Lady Terminator, it features a white American lady who gets possessed by ancient Indonesian spirits, those ancient Indonesian spirits don't unaccountably turn her into a cyborg.
