Badass Females in Film

Lillian Behrendt Lillian Behrendt 13,619 views 8 items
Since time immemorial, "good girls" have been tedious. Nothing gets my (proverbial) cock softer than a virginal damsel in distress. Blech!

These ladies are the baddest of the bad, the meanest of the mean, and the toughest of the tough.

    Varla

    In 1965, Tura Satana set the standard for kickass sexy badass bitches on film.

    With her wild makeup, Bettie Page hair, skin-tight clothes and body that puts amazonian goddesses to shame, Varla even makes picking on high school kids look cool.

    Oh yeah, and she kicks the stupid square guy's ass in a race and then kills him with her BARE HANDS for no particular reason. And she drives a cool car! And she can go go dance!

    She's heartless, she's ruthless, and she dies at the end, but the iconic image of Varla stomping around the desert, a Nat Sherman held between her gloved fingers, will always live on (in my masturbatory fantasies if no place else.)

    May Day

    Now don't get me wrong, I love the traditional Bond girl: big hair and an even bigger sexual appetite. And the clothes-- I love the clothes.

    But Grace Jones as May Day in 1985's A View to a Kill is, no contest, the coolest Bond Girl of all time.

    She's androgynous, beautiful and tough. She lifts a man over her head. She parachutes off of the Eiffel Tower. She wears really cool suits.

    Haters!! Have you seen the movie 'B***h Slap'? I think you'd probably enjoy it. It's set in modern times, but shot in a 70's sexploitation film type of way...wicked awesome!

    You don't need to. But it would be nice. How about the now-so-copied-it's-lame-but-was-revelatory-at-the-time-one-arm-shotgun-pump?

    It looks like you were going for artsy and non-mainstream. You achieved that and now I have 2 new movies to check out. But I must agree with Lexicon - Divine technically isn't a female. Sorry

      See below re: Divine.

      And this list REALLY isn't artsy.

        I was trying to pay you a compliment and, as usual, I screwed it up.

    Divine weren't female, and he was gut-wrenching, NOT "kick-ass".

      It's a list of characters, not of actors. Divine may have been a man, but he PLAYED women.

    You could also use just one word: Biceps.
