French hottie Julie Du Page has the title role in Lady Jayne: Killer, as an assassin who wears brightly colored thong underwear--which she strips down to when she does her hits. After she takes a suitcase carrying a million dollars from a mob boss, she hits the road with a single mom (Erika Eleniak from Baywatch) and her son who are themselves on the run. The ridiculous plot isn't worth recounting because no one watches a babe-with-guns movie for the story (and certainly not for the truly atrocious dialogue). Unfortunately, Lady Jayne: Killer falls woefully short on skin and action--the modestly titillating scenes are few and you can find better shootouts on television. Also featuring Adam Baldwin and James Remar, two decent actors who presumably needed the money. --Bret Fetzer

Rating: - Laughable, but entertaining, thriller
Once upon a time, director Mark L. Lester directed two of my all-time favorite drive-in flicks/guilty pleasures: "Bobbie Joe and the Outlaw" and "Class of 1984", the former featuring "Wonder Woman" herself Lynda Carter flashing her breasts and shooting it out with the police while the latter features a very young Michael J. Fox getting knifed in a high school cafeteria by a psychotic punk gangster. The movies were trash, but they had flair. Now, with drive-ins nearing extinction and the drive-in movie a thing of the past, Lester is stuck helming direct-to-video nonsense like "Lady Jayne: Killer", with a standard B-level cast including video stalwarts James Remar, Adam Baldwin and Erika Eleniak playing total stereotypes involved with a psychotic, sexy hit woman named Jayne, played by a supposedly "hot" French actress name Julie Du Page, who in reality has a hot body but a face that a only a blind man could love. But I digress--
The plot is standard for this kind of opus. Jayne is looking to leave Los Angeles after her latest hit job. Unfortunately, she can't get a flight or a rental car. What's a psycho babe to do? What anyone else would do: she hitches a ride with the dumbest mother and son in the United States, Emily Shaw (Eleniak) and her hormonal (natch) teenage son Kerry (Jeremy Lelliott), who themselves are heading to Houston to escape a vicious drug dealer Kerry has crossed. The fact that Jayne is an obvious sociopath who immediately starts hitting on Kerry and has no ... Read More

I saw this movie in a sold out theater in Bloomington, Indiana. Let me tell you, what a film! The dialog captured what being an assassin is really all about. Whatever you do in life, remember this--it's better to be friends with an assassin than to be enemies with an assassin. Jayne is one bad femme fatal. She was a victim of a mother and son combo that picks up hitchhikers, and then robs them in their sleep. Very sneaky. Unfortunately, Lady Jayne: Killer met with a very tragic end-the credits. By the way, after the credits rolled, the entire Bloomington, Indiana audience gave it a standing ovation for well over two minutes! Not since "Titanic" has a film captured the hearts and minds of the Indiana crowd. Besides cow punching and baby swapping, we Indianans also enjoy assassinating each other. We Indianans are more inclined to liken ourselves to Lady Jayne: Killer than say, Lee Harvey Oswald? Ready...aim...FIRE! Duck, Ma! It's raining bullets outside again, and the neighbor just found his cow dead with two bullets in its udder, and it ain't pina colada leaking out of it I can tell you that much right now cause I just slurped it up boy. RUN MA RUN! Lady Jayne: Killer is a solid film.(...)He'll pay, too. I can assure you. CLICK--BANG
Rating:  - garbage
Yes, the girls are pretty, but the acting, plot, and holes in the plot are laughable and pathetic. James Remar looks embarassed, and Baldwin looks stoned. Why did they even waste the film? Makes Ed Wood look like Orson Welles.
