Holly Rowe (Viva Bianca) is a veteran high-class call girl in Sydney, Australia. 17 year old runaway Shay Ryan (Hanna Mangan Lawrence) is new in town trying to turn tricks on the streets. She is dangerously inexperienced and gets into trouble. Holly is trying to retire and run away to Paris. Her partner has an accident and she needs a brunette to team up with. She picks up Shay on the street after she got beaten and robbed. The night job turns murderous and deadly.This is a superior exploitation movie. There is some brutal realistic violence, gritty gutter life, and plenty of nudity. The story is solid. Both of the lead actresses are great. This takes the simple premise and the exploitation genre to make a compelling indie. It's a little slow at times when it should be ramping up the intensity but it never stops being a fascinating watch.

If your foray into Australian dramas is Neighbours or Home and away or film production is limited to Crocodile Dundee then this gritty, erotic thriller set in the seedy part of Sydney will blow your preconceptions away.Holly (Viva Bianca) is a veteran high class call girl on her last night before moving to Paris. Shay (Hanna Mangan-Lawrence) is a runaway to Sydney and its her first night on the streets. She already has been involved in a road accident while performing a trick on a client and beaten up by a rival hooker's pimp.Holly recruits Shay for a threesome with a client in a hotel room but they end up witnessing a killing and end up being on the run as the killer pursues them and he is not man who is prepared to stay down even if he is run over by a car.This is a low budget urban thriller in the seamy side of life. It starts of as erotica where we see Holly having sex with a naked man in a room full of women and the director makes sure that there is regular female nudity as the film goes along.The film may not have too much of a plot and I guess with a director like Paul Verhoeven and a bigger budget this film would be an intriguing erotic thriller but its good to see a grittier side of Australian cinema.

X (Night of Vengeance) will get you blood pumping. All along the ride you will want the two girls to get out of it clean, but trouble will hound them mercilessly.It's gritty, it's dirty, it's sexy, it's not what you want to happen when on the job. You get to see the two very different sides of a single coin. You'll enjoy, because you'll get to understand some things, and imagine many others. It will grip you and it won't let you go until it is finished with you.A few things are off with this movie. Sometimes, you want a tighter scenario, editing, a more experienced camera work, or more fine tuning on the dialogs, but it's easily forgivable.Watch it only if you're ready for suspense and a good dose of the underground.

Do not watch this because of the cover. Or rather tone down the expectations you might have seeing that cover. You will be expecting more than you will actually get. Not that there isn't anything to see (that will remind you of that cover), but this is a thriller at heart and you should be looking forward to that aspect of the movie more than anything else.The actors in this are good enough, the story is trivial, but not anything that will drag you down or make you feel too bad/uncomfortable watching. A nice little b-movie then, that might not be everyones cup of tea, but will please a target audience.
