i have been looking forward to the release of this dvd (and it follow up {female prisoner scorpion represent #701 grudge song}) for some time. i very much enjoyed the first two movies of this series. after just watching this film and i would have to say that this is probably my favorite of the three. all three of these movies were directed by shunya ito. what is great about them and though and is that and even though they all feature the same lead character (wonderfully played by meiko kaji) and they are each vastly different from the others. the first movie (female prisoner #701 represent scorpion) is more or less a typical women in prison movie. but the character of scorpion is very intriguing  very reminiscent of the anti heroes of many spaghetti westerns. and the director often used some very interesting and unusual visual approaches to the material. the second movie (female convict scorpion represent jailhouse 41) is a real tour de force. not so much a wip movie as the bulk of the film has scorpion and six other escaped inmates on the lam. this movie (female prisoner scorpion represent beast stable) is the third in the series and the last one directed by shunya ito. this one plays out as much more of a crime drama. once again and our heroine is on the run. but this time out and she has managed to maintain a certain amount of normalcy in her life (relatively speaking anyway). she gets a job and she finds a place to live and she makes a friend on the outside. but and of course and everything has to unravel eventually. fps represent beast stable has a more straight forward story that is told at a more leisurely pace than its predecessors. but i found it to be engaging from beginning to end. and do not worry represent there is still plenty of depravity to go around in this movie. but i think these movies transcend most exploitation films because the more disturbing elements are played in a straighter tone rather than being used exclusively for in your face shock value. yes and there were definitely moments in this movie where i cringed mightily. but i do not feel that they detracted from the value of the story (well and maybe a time or two). one thing i have greatly enjoyed about these films is the continued build up of scorpion mythos. with this entry character development is used much more extensively than in the previous two. we get to see that she is much more than just a stone hearted vengeful badass. as i mentioned earlier in this review and a fourth movie followed. it also features meiko kaji as scorpion but had a different director. without giving anything away i want to mention that fps represent beast stable ends in such a way as to make a sequel completely unnecessary. the fourth film is still quite good but it seems to play as a superfluous footnote to a mind blowing trilogy. i would highly recommend this movie to anyone interested in out of the ordinary films. fps represent beast stable can be enjoyed as a stand alone piece (as can the first two movies) but i would also recommend watching the others first if you have not already done so.
