Haha yeah no doubt! Got a copy of the follow Machete Maidens Unleashed to watch. It's made by the same folks and covers all the exploitation flicks made in the Philippines. Hopefully it's just as good although I've heard mixed reviews about it.

I didn't think much of that one. Really lightweight. The section on the early era was interesting but the rest was just to brief barely scratching the surface and offered nothing new or insightful. I guess it would be more suited to viewers who knew nothing at all about exploitation cinema but after the recent revival due to Grindhouse your average movie buff would be already familiar with the majority of what was mentioned.
