The Adventures of Paula Peril, The Comic Book Babe in Peril

I figured it out.  The dame in this film is a cross between Ada Wong and Jill Valentine from the "Resident Evil" franchise. Clad in red and black, with some shiny boots (heels), big...er, smile...leather belt, tight turtleneck...exquisite. Yep, Valerie Perez in the title role has the look.  Sultry and full of fire and desire.  Taken from the comic book, Paula Perillo, aka Paula Peril, will indeed be in much peril.  Strung up, tied to a chair, gagged, chloroformed, hung from a beam, manhandled by brute thugs, chloroformed again, strung up again...our sultry protagonist will indeed be in peril from dangerous brutes and other sultry dames. Let us take a look at 2014's "The Adventures of Paula Peril," directed by Jason Winn, Benjamin Barak, and Savvy Lorestani. 

As our pulp exploitation tale begins, the sultry Paula Peril, an investigative reporter, is battling several thugs.  She will be knocked out, strung up, gagged, and at their mercy. She will be wearing black heeled boots, black stockings, a tight black miniskirt, a tight red top, and have her great big...smile, on display. This is the life of Paula Peril in her efforts to clean up the city as the beat reporter for the Gazette. Then she will be all decked out in a tight red evening gown showing amazing cleavage.  The formal cocktail party is also attended by her paper's society page reporter, Veronica (Marla Malcom), in her shiny blue, revealing evening gown. Veronica will be wooed by a handsome cult leader, chloroformed, tied to an altar and prepped for sacrifice. Paula to the rescue, in her evening gown.  She too will be overpowered, and look good at it.

Yep, Paula and Veronica have a love/hate relationship. The two babes are rivals but ultimately are fighting the same foes. Again, Paula will be snared, this time by evil lady crime boss Irene (Stacey Turner).  Lucky for the tied up and gagged Paula, and may I say she looks so good in her tight outfit all tied up and in peril, her cub reporter Jimmy (Stephen Hanthorn) is there to save the day.  Being chloroformed, knocked on the noggin, gagged, tied up, and even tied to railroad tracks, always clad in her tight red and black outfit and boots, is a staple of this film. Take my word for it, the comic book plot works, though we won't go into it too much here. 

If you like sultry dames, clad in tight get-ups and boots, in peril...gagged, chloroformed, tied up, hanging from a beam, with bombs or henchmen nearby, this is the film for you.  Yep, a hybrid of Jill Valentine and Ada Wong works very well.  For an alluring and fun movie night, and for comic book fans, see "The Adventures of Paula Peril."
