(1989) Blood Games
THRILLER/ ACTION
Trashy exploitation flick that at first, appears to look like a routine baseball movie with an all woman's baseball team "Babe and the Ballgirls" starting with coach/ manager father, Midnight (Ross Hagen) with the team that include his daughter and baseball player, Babe (Laura Albert), Donna (Lee Benton), Stoney (Julie Hall) Mikey (Lisa Zambrano), Ingrid (Randi Randolph), Connie (Sabrina Hills), Shorty (Sonjia Redo), Louise (Paula Manga), and Wanda (Rhyve Sawyer). And after they had played, beat/ humiliate the opposing team, sore loser and sponsor, Mino Collins (Ken Carpenter) and his baseball player son, Roy (Gregory Scott Cummins). And on top of it all, it happened on the day on Mino's son, Roy's birthday too. And upon Midnight coming to collect a baseball bet, Mino then makes a promise that he'd pay him later. And rather than Mino keeping his promise, he then sends someone to give him half of what was owed. So Midnight then goes over to come and collect which is at the bar, and just as soon as Mino uses the bathroom, it is during then he forces Mino at the point of the gun to collect what was owed. Meanwhile, while waiting at the team bus, two of the players become worried, decide to go and look for the coach who they become assaulted by the son, Roy and his best friend Holt (Don Dowe). And just as Midnight comes back to the team bus with the money, he then goes and look for them and prevents any further assault toward the women, but he gets himself stabbed in the process. And they then go on the run as soon as they attempt to drive away they ended up killing Mino's son Roy. Mino exacts revenge to the entire team confronting much of the them at the forest.
Came out before "League of the Their Own" with many familiar nuances with "Deliverance" which despite the second rate acting and fake action, it does provide a different approach which without some of the nude scenes it would have been a hit and miss for me.
