I was just re-watching The Women the other day, and I have to say that Rosalind Russell and Paulette Goddard had a damned fine knock-down drag-out bitch fight. I always envied Roz for taking such a good bite out of Paulette’s leg; Paulette always annoyed the hell out of me and I felt it was well-deserved.
Kill Bill has a good one, with lots of blood and gore. The Bride and One Eye are fighting inside the trailer. At the end, The Bride plucks out the remaining eye and stomps on it. Pretty cool.
Sorry, but the hotel room fight between Charlize Theron and Terri Hatcher in “2 Days in the Valley” involved two premiere hotties, with Charlize in a skintight white catsuit, and it was EXTREMELY rough. I can’t remember anything ELSE about the movie but I remember that fight. (The Kill Bill fight was way too stylized to be effective.)
Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, the fight in the HQ between Michelle Yeoh and Zhang Xiyi, 2 of my favorite asian hotties doing battle!!!
and I agree with the bride vrs one eye, and yeah the Blade Runner death was just as creepy the second time around, at least til it hits you where you have seen it.
From Russia With Love, the second Bond movie, features two Gypsy women fighting over Bond. There wasn’t a winner, though, because before a clear-cut winner could emerge, the [Bulgarian?] army crashed the party.
They probably heard there was a catfight going on!
This is the one that came to mind immediately. I remember Charlize all in white, but other than the fight, it’s a blur. James Spader has some good moments as a slimeball, something he does quite well. But that fight is spectacular and raw.
Ooh, I forgot about that one! Good call. Marlene Dietrich and Una Merkel duke it out in a very believable slug-fest. Marlene in particular looks like she’s had a lot of experience kicking keesters. I can’t remember if Marlene wins or if it was broken up prematurely by James Stewart dumping mop water all over them.
Pretty sure Jimmy has to pour water on them – not that that stops Dietrich, as she just redirects her aims at him instead. Only thing better than a catfight is one involving water.
