''Angels Revenge'' has major roles for Peter Lawford and Creator/JackPalance as the leaders of a drug cartel, and gives minor roles to famous character actors Jim Backus, Alan Hale, Jr., Pat Buttram and Arthur Godfrey ([[AsHimself playing himself]]). Of the actresses who played the movie's seven female protagonists, however, the closest any had previously come to any degree of fame was Robin Greer, who won prominent roles on ''Ryan's Hope'' and ''Falconcrest''. Susan Kiger was the Playboy Playmate of the Month for January 1977, and played singer Michelle Wilson; her co-stars were Sylvia Anderson as stuntwoman Terry Grant, Lieu Chinh as martial arts instructor Keiko Umaro, Jacqueline Cole as high-school teacher April, Noela Velasco as model Maria, and Robin Greer as policewoman Elaine Brenner. Robin's younger sister Liza Greer plays high-school student Trish, who invites herself into the team.

** Trish isn't prepared for either the gun recoil or report, then forgets she has a loaded weapon and fires at the ground near the others' feet. Acknowledged by the characters as Elaine says she'll teach Trish proper use of a handgun.
** Averted with the adults, who are implied to have picked it up rather quickly -- even the ditzy model.

* InterchangeableAsianCultures: Keiko has a Japanese name and wields a katana, but is introduced as being from Vietnam. Technically it's possible, but given the general intelligence level of this movie as a whole, it seems slipshod at best. What makes it better is that the actress was neither Japanese NOR Vietnamese - she's Chinese.

* AbsenteeActor: In a rare instance of this trope appearing in a movie, Neville Brand (who plays Miller) is completely cut out of some versions of the film (including the one used on ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000''), despite his name being left in the credits.

Also not to be confused with ''Series/CharliesAngels'', although that was almost certainly the filmmakers' intent.

Added DiffLines:

* TheMockbuster: Being a product of the latter part of TheSeventies, about fetching young female crimefighters, it counts as one for ''Series/CharliesAngels'', made more explicit with use of the word "angels" when it was retitled.
