Epic Ice Skating Violence

The ice skating scene is one of my favorites.
She starts off doing this delicate figure skating stuff and then, suddenly the beast is unleashed.
Her dazzling display of strength and skill makes it clear no one stands a chance.

Clearly, she is gifted with super powers in skating, smack talk, falconry, and is improving in her gymnastics.

Edit: She is such a multi-talented evil spawn that I even forgot her super power for conjuring firearms and "accidental" shootings.

Her skating stunt double was a boy. You can see him catch the wig and reposition it a couple of times. Hilariously cheesy.

I saw this at the movies in 1979 at one of those old HUGE screen movie theaters, and this scene was so awesome! Like someone mentioned, she starts skating gracefully, then suddenly, its "Rollerball on Ice".

The movie as a whole is not great, but it does have some epic scenes, and a great, over-bearing score. A weird, wild, memorable movie that has stuck with me for years.
