There were plenty of films about underground women's fights with an MMA focus. Basically, of course, these are low-budget or completely independent projects, like "Fight Valley" (2016) "Women's Fight Club" (2017) "Smack-Smack" (2019) or "Chokehold" (2019). Now you can add a film called "Unchained" (Unchained).
The film was directed by a filmmaker under the pseudonym Raffaello, who has previously worked on short films and indie thrillers.
The main character with idealistic views is kidnapped by villains who organize underground tournaments in women's fights without rules. Fighting every night for her own life, the heroine hatches a plan to overthrow her captors and end the bloody tournament.
The main role in the film was played by a wrestling star Taya Valkyrie, performing in the WWE promotion under the name Frankie Monae. The rest of the caste includes: April Clark ("Brotherhood of Dance") Mary Mulroney (“Storm”), famous American actor Eric Roberts (“The Expendables”) and others.
Company Leomark Studios should release the film on Video on Demand platforms July 2, 2021.
James Kush is a martial arts practitioner and director who occasionally produces themed short films. But it seems his feature debut is approaching.
We are talking about a hand-to-hand action movie called "Lost Phoenix" (Lost Phoenix), which the director actively filmed last summer.
The plot centers on a mysterious man who woke up in the summer of 2020 with amnesia after a long coma. With a pandemic and social unrest all around him, he is determined to discover his true identity. However, in the process of research, the main character realizes that armed mercenaries, led by a femme fatale with a sniper rifle, are on his heels.
Debutants took part in the film Van Drol и Pri Parikhas well as himself James Kush.
By the way, the director is currently trying to find investors to release his action film at least in a digital release. Unfortunately, it is unknown whether Kush will find sponsors. Well, in the meantime, there is a concept trailer "Lost Phoenix".
Let's finish today's selection of trailers with a web series featuring actors from Australia and Southeast Asia from the company Swadesh Entertainment, which creates various content for the YouTube channel of the same name.
Project called Ayotti (this is probably the name of the main character) belongs to the producer Faisal Azad. He also did the script.
Events will unfold around an ordinary (at first glance) girl who finds herself at the epicenter of a showdown between crime bosses over spheres of influence.
The main roles in the series went to the actor Saifuleh Sadi (“Superhero”) and debutante Taiji Hussain. Visitors to our site should be interested in the participation of Australians in the project Maria Tran ("Dragon Fist", "Bleeding Steel") and Takashi Hara (“Operation Ognipat”), which guarantees hand-to-hand combat in the web series.
Unfortunately, it is unknown when this series will begin airing on the channel. However, it is said that this will happen in 2021.

Thanks for posting. Future plans include a review of discs for the anime “The Crying Killer,” a trilogy with…
You can watch it once
The film is not bad, but the recent "City Hungter" is better in terms of action.
To be honest, there is no particular principle... when there is more time, an “old man” is added, when there is less time...
