Savage Streets stars Linda Blair as a tough high school coed turned vigilante against a brutal gang of rapists and murderers. Blair is Brenda, vivacious leader of the "Satins," a fun-loving group of pretty high school girls. The Satins are in for trouble from the first moment they play a harmless trick on the "Scars" -- a vicious gang who run loose on the Hollywood streets. The scars and the malevolent leader Jake take their revenge seriously -- first with Brenda's deaf-mute sister, then her soon-to-be-married best friend. Caught up in her rivalry with the cheerleaders, Brenda is at first unaware of the Scar's involvement, but is soon shocked with the full truth. Shock...hatred...and then a deadly vengeance in a skintight black suit, as Brenda searches out the gang members one by one. (official distributor synopsis)

If this film has even a little to do with reality, growing up in America in the 80s must have been hell :-D. Savage Streets is unintentionally funny, a trashy rape-revenge exploitation flick that shows exactly what I don’t like about 80s cinema. It has something to do more with, for example, the aesthetics of the characters than with the storytelling, but I can't help myself. Awful. Three stars because it looks really funny today.
