Synopsis:

Heather (Linnea Quigley), the deaf-mute sister of Brenda (Linda Blair) is gang-raped in a drawn-out, violent scene at the beginning of this routine vengeance movie, a scene that provides the motivation for Brenda's rampage through the rest of the film. Dressed in a special outfit that bares enough skin to suit the standards of this genre and armed with a crossbow, Brenda goes after the young punks in the 'Scars' gang who raped her sister - with predictably gory results. Surrounding this miniature Charles Bronson is a society burdened with parodies of 'good' people: the school principal who is only superficially tough, and the upper-class teens whose thought processes were arrested shortly after kindergarten. Stereotypical and transparent, this teen movie is interesting because it does promote a woman in a 'hero' role, but the subject matter and violence will not appeal to everyone.

Brenda is bad, bold and brash. But she absolutely dotes on her deaf-mute kid sister Heather. When a prank involving the trashing of a dope-dealing gang's car leads to the brutal rape of the innocent Heather by the gang, Brenda vows revenge, while fending off the romantic overtures of a dimwitted jock and the venomous remarks from his jealous girlfriend. In a riveting climax, Brenda ultimately delivers justice for her sister's stolen innocence.

An altercation between a group of girls out for the night and a gang of local punks leaves the punks vowing revenge. It comes in the form of the gang-rape of a young mute (Heather) and her older sister (Brenda) starts hunting the gang in turn - armed with bear traps and crossbow.
