Mostly known in the horror community for here role in Philippe Mora's Howling II: Your Sister's A Werewolf, the tall, leggy, buxom and statuesque blonde beauty that is Sybil Danning has starred in countless cult B-movies since her career began in the late '60s, including one lesser known film, titled Panther Squad.
And we've learned this week that Full Moon will be bringing this rarely seen French/Spanish gem back from VHS rental oblivion with a crisp new remastered HD transfer on both Blu-ray and DVD for the first time ever this Wednesday, January 15th, only at Full Moon Direct!
Panther Squad sees the dynamic and commanding Danning starring as Ilona aka The Panther, a hotter than Hades heroine who packs a punch and looks lethal poured into her barely-there leather outfit. When a famous astronaut is held captive by a group of murderous environmental extremists, world leaders turn to The Panther Squad, a group of vicious (and viciously sexy) female mercenaries to search, rescue...and destroy. Will they succeed? Naturally, and they'll look sexy doing so!
Directed by French genre movie machine Pierre Chevalier under his pseudonym Peter Knight, the film also stars the immortal Jack Taylor (Female Vampire), Karin Schubert (Emanuelle Around the World) and Donald O'Brien (Zombie Holocaust).
Special features include a brand new Sybil Danning audio commentary moderated by Delirium Magazine editor Chris Alexander. And speaking of Delirium, they're also unleashing the sexy and color-soaked 22nd issue of their beloved cinema journal on February 5th, featuring a blow-out Panther Squad cover story and a pair of killer new Sybil Danning interviews!
And if this pair of Danning doses doesn't do you in, get yourself to Burbank horror hotspot Dark Delicacies on February 15th at 4pm and meet Lady Sybil herself! She'll be signing copies of Panther Squad, Delirium and tons of other stuff!
