White Fire (1984)

Directed by Jean-Marie Pallardy (Emmanuelle Goes to Cannes)

Robert Ginty (The Exterminator) and Belinda Mayne (Krull) play Bo and Inga, brother and sister jewel thieves who target the legendary 'White Fire' diamond - a priceless rock so hot it actually burns those who try to lay their hands on it!

"This is the kind of movie that randomly throws a chainsaw fight in ten minutes in and you wonder, how can this top that? And it does. Again and again." - Sam Panico, B&S About Movies

"White Fire is mostly going to appeal to a certain audience who crave their violence bloody, their romance exploitative and their dialogue written on the back of a beer mat during a production meeting, and White Fire delivers on all fronts in spectacular fashion." - Chris Ward, Flickering Myth

"If there is some exploitation element that goes un-touched on, I can’t think of what it is." - Thomas T. Sueyres, Video Junkie

Imagine the sordidness of an Italian giallo mixed with the no-rules anarchy of a Turkish ripoff, and you’re halfway there to this infamous exploitation epic of chainsaw mayhem and kinky touches (from the filmmaker of Erotic Diary of a Lumberjack.)

Robert Ginty (The Exterminator) and Belinda Mayne (Krull) are sleazy brother-and-sister jewel thieves who covet the supernatural 'White Fire' diamond. Their nutzoid plan involving plastic surgery and explosives to steal it hits a snag when bounty hunter Fred Williamson shows up thinking they’re responsible for the missing prostitute he’s tracking. Oh, and the film’s vaguely futuristic production design is never explained!
