I need some help with some background material. I'm not a movie buff, but one of my characters is. Can folks help me come up with a list of movies where a normal-looking woman turns into an unstoppable killing machine? No robots.

So far, all I can think of is Species and Ginger Snaps. I've ruled out Eve of Destruction and the latest Terminator due to the No Robots thing...

The Fifth Element
The Long Kiss Goodnight
The Ring (What? The thing coming up the well is womanish and unstoppable and she kills people!)
Nikita
Red Sonja (okay, that's just too cheesy...)
The Matrix

Yeah, but how many of these folks could walk into a bank without setting off alarms. The Lady from the fifth element, sure and Trinity. Mabye Nikita (if she had her gun well concealed) but Red Sonja or the thing from the well? I don't think so!

Oh, and I've never heard of the Long Kiss Goodnight, what is it about?

The Long Kiss Goodnight is about a secret agent who gets memory loss and ends up as a nice, sweet family mom. Until she starts getting flash backs.

Even if you can't find a use for it in your writings I recommend it as a good movie to watch. Gina Davis and Samuel L. Jackson.
