This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

The one with the killer boomerangs. Saw part of it wayyyyyy back and its interesting. But the editing leaves alot to be desired. Action tended to skip in unpleasant ways.

Another one from this series possibly that am not sure of the name of now had a sort of claw/scissor weapon on a chain that decapitated people.

Check out this eclectic review and history of the various Flying Guillotine movies.

That is the one. I agree the edits are a bit choppy (film making overall is a little shaky, even though this director is normally pretty good).

I like the video break down of them. The first one and Vengeful Beauty (Flying Guillotine III in the video) are my two favorites. I've really come to prefer the latter as time has gone on (the guy who made this video didn't like the exploitation elements but I have to say I think those help make the movie). Master of the Flying Guillotine is pretty awesome as well
