Camp with a capital C! Pamela Anderson (The Last Showgirl) hung up her red swimsuit for black leather and a world gone to hell in Barb Wire. And whatever you do, "don't call me babe."
It's 2017 and the USA is in the wake of the Second Civil War. There is only one free city left: Steel Harbor. A city marked by chaos and crime, providing a home for a new kind of mercenary.
The sexiest, toughest woman in Steel Harbor, Barb Wire (Anderson), is a nightclub owner with a few side hustles hidden in her corset. When Barb's ex-lover wanders into her establishment with his fugitive wife, she gets roped into a top-secret government plot involving biological weapons.
Iconic imagery, loose Casablanca nods and tight one-liners (and clothing), this '90s cult-classic is what the QFT Late slot was made for.
Directed by Gia Coppola (Mainstream) and featuring a Golden Globe-nominated performance from Pamela Anderson, who dazzles in the role of a lifetime, this poignant film of resilience, rhinestones and feathers is simply unmissable.
