"Sister Street Fighter" opening

Sister Street Fighter [Original Trailer]

Glad there's a thread for her, wasn't a Pinky actress but still one of my faves from that era. Just re-watched the first 2 Sister Street Fighter films for about the 10th time, recommended to anyone. DVD box set is a great bargain, plus it come with such a nice, informative booklet.


No denying Sonny's talents, if I'm in a fight though would want her covering my back!
