History Film / WonderWomen

* BloodlessCarnage: Dozens of people are gunned down, but the filmmakers never use any squibs or fake blood.

The 1973 ExploitationFilm stars Ross Hagen, a gravel-voiced tough guy known for appearing in such schlock as ''Film/TheSidehackers'' and ''Film/TheHellcats''. Other notable cast members are Nancy Kwan (from ''[[AsianHookerStereotype The World of Suzie Wong]]'') as the villainess, Vic Diaz (“the Filipino PeterLorre”) as a zany sidekick, and Maria de Aragon ([[Film/ANewHope Greedo]] herself) as a henchwoman scorned.

* SmartPeoplePlayChess: Spectacularly averted in the final scene, as Mike and a blonde bimbo play chess - though she's more devoted to stroking apple stems than actually playing.

* ShootTheShaggyDog / HoistByHisOwnPetard: The film ends with Harber being surrounded by a bunch of vengeful action floozies, one of whom aims Harber's own hand-cannon at him. Presumably he will be killed imminently, but judging by his lustful smile, he apparently thinks it's orgy time.

* ImmortalitySeeker: Mr. Paulson, a decrepit old millionaire, is willing to spend his fortune to be transferred into the body of a young jai alai player.

* ThrowItIn One pedestrian gets struck hard by one of the taxis during the chase scene. According to WordOfGod, it was a crewmember who was stoned, and he actually got a broken leg from the hit. They used the shot anyway.

* RealitySubtext: One guy gets struck hard by one of the taxis during the chase scene. According to WordOfGod, it was a crewmember who was stoned, and he actually got a broken leg from the hit.

* SoundtrackDissonance: For whatever reason, the soundtrack starts playing a ''circus calliope'' for some scenes.

-->'''Mike Nelson:''' ''(singing)'' “He's our hero! He's our hero! Blasting women with a shotgun to the face!”

-->'''Kevin Murphy''' ''(as Dr. Tsu)'' Would you like soup or salad before I fillet your genitals and store them in plastic bags?

-->'''Bill Corbett''' ('''as Linda''') “Thank you for taking charge. I was so afraid when I killed three guards to rescue you.”

-->'''Mike Nelson''': I'm gonna go with {{Cthuhlu}}'s ''dick''.

-->'''Mike Nelson''': I'm gonna go with ''Cthuhlu's dick''.

* BazaarOfTheBizarre / EldritchAbomination: During a chase scene through a bazaar, there is a brief shot of a strange fish-like creature wriggling across the ground. It is on screen for less than a second, has no connection to anything in the plot, and never appears again. The RiffTrax crew can't even agree what the thing was supposed to be.
-->'''Mike Nelson''': “I'm gonna go with 'Cthuhlu's dick'.”

-->'''Mike Nelson''': Did he use his brain or his sex to figure that out?

* ExploitationFilm: A prime example of grindhouse film.

* ActingForTwo: Lorenzo and old man Paulson are both played by the same actor.

* EthnicScrappy: Lapu-Lapu, a random Filipino taxi driver who picks up the American hero at the airport and inexplicably becomes his confidential sidekick for the rest of the film.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece / AluminumChristmasTrees: Complaining about the kidnapping of a star jai alai player, Lorenzo remarks, “It could become a fad like skyjacking and get out of hand.” At the time this film was made, skyjacking was indeed perceived as an annoying fad, driven by a copy-cat mentality, and not the grave security threat that we would consider it today.
-->'''Mike Nelson''': You know, ''fads'', like leisure suits or mail bombs.

-->'''Harber''': “I see, that explains, uhh... the kidnapping of, uh... the jai alai player, what's his name... and the other missing athletes.”
-->'''Mike Nelson''': “Did he use his brain or his sex to figure that out?”

-->'''Kevin Murphy''': “Bulletproof pillow? What is this, a Best Western?”

* Cukoloris - Wobbly colored lights are projected on the ceiling of the villain's laboratory, just to ramp up the sci-fi vibe.

-->'''Kevin Murphy''': “And she's brought down by an errant ear-slap.”

* {{Fanservice}}: Most of the film. The epilogue introduces yet another bikini-clad woman, just to give the audience one more piece of meat to gawk at before the film is over.
-->Kevin Murphy: “It's called Wonder Women because I WONDER why any WOMEN would agree to be in it!”

-->'''Bill Corbett''': “So she was a giant sack of flour all along!”

-->'''Dr. Tsu''': “Your old-fashioned way of sex runs the risk of involving the emotions.”
-->'''Linda''': “Brain sex may work for you, but some of us still prefer physical contact.”

-->'''Mike Nelson''': ('''as Harber''') “I trust you entirely, power-mad supervillain.”

-->'''Kevin Murphy''': “Did he gear up in an antique firearms museum?”

-->'''Mike Nelson''': “Dude, she's outrunning you in three-inch heels. You're never allowed to mention your CIA badass credentials again.”

-->'''Kevin Murphy''': “You know, when I got here today I didn't expect to see the most vomit-inducing thing ever committed to film!”

* MobstacleCourse: The foot chase through Manila is complicated by thousands of bystanders, many of whom seem unaware that a movie is being made.
-->'''Mike Nelson''': “If there's one thing I've learned about the Philippines from watching this movie, it's that ''all of the people'' are out standing in the street ''all of the time''.”

* NoMrBondIExpectYouToDine: Harber arrives just as Dr. Tsu and Gregorius are sitting down to bowls of flaming soup.
-->'''Dr. Tsu''': “Sit down, Mr. Harber.”
-->'''Kevin Murphy''' ('''as Dr. Tsu''') “Would you like soup or salad before I fillet your genitals and store them in plastic bags?”
* OverlyNarrowSuperlative: The plot hinges on the kidnapping of the world's top jai alai player.

-->'''Dr. Tsu''': “It might be amusing to have you two exchange parts. You, my dear, with your lovely face and figure. He with his brain and sex.”
-->'''Mike Nelson''': “Are they talking about Carl Sagan?”

-->'''Bill Corbett''': “Fight choreography by adorable newborn kittens.”

-->'''Bill Corbett''': “Wow, she paintballed the door open.”
* ShootTheShaggyDog / HoistByHisOwnPetard: The film ends with Harber being surrounded by a bunch of vengeful action floozies, one of whom aims Harber's own hand-cannon at him. Presumably he will be killed imminently.
-->'''Dr. Tsu''': ('''voice-over''') “Goodbye, Mr. Harber. Like all great minds, we cannot avoid our destiny.”
-->''Screen fades to black.''
-->'''Kevin Murphy''': “Yes, this truly was a tale of ''great minds''.”

-->'''Mike Nelson''': “You know, ''fads'', like leisure suits or mail bombs.”

-->'''Mike Nelson''' ('''singing'''): “He's our hero! He's our hero! Blasting women with a shotgun to the face!”

--> '''Dr. Tsu''': ('''across a thirty-foot dinner table''') “My chef's survival depends on her ability to satisfy my tastes.”
-->'''Mike Nelson''' ('''as Gregorious''') “Yeah, I didn't get a word of that, but I'm sure it was kinda evil.”

* Chickification: An especially egregious example. After Linda has singlehandedly thrown Dr. Tsu's headquarters into chaos and rescued the do-nothing hero, she instantly surrenders her weapon to him, and begins to follow him around like a puppy.
