Undefeatable (1994)

EW's GRADE
D-

Details Movie Rated: R; Genre: Action/Adventure; With: Cynthia Rothrock and Don Niam

Undefeatable takes place in an alternate universe where everybody — I mean everybody — is martial-arts adept: mall rats, trailer park denizens, abnormal-psych professors. Ruling over all, however, is a waitress (Cynthia Rothrock, here sporting a flaming red 'do to underscore her indomitable fury). She's on the trail of a bug-eyed, disco-hairstyled serial killer (Don Niam, whose acting ability is commensurate with John Wayne Gacy's talent as a painter) who murdered her sister. You might argue that Rothrock's vengeance balances out the gratuitous brutality meted out to the other women in this truly reprehensible picture, but you'd be wrong. D-
