'Dead Or Alive'
You can imagine the pitch made to the studio for this one.
Desperate producer: "It's about girls in bikinis who'll have slow-mo kung fu fights to a backing track of pounding techno music."
Stupid studio exec: "Wow there's no way that won't be hit, here you go here's a wad of cash, tell you what don't you cast Holly Valance in the title role, that'll work."
It didn't, shockingly women beating each other up in real life isn't sexy, cool or exciting. Holly should've stuck to the singing, at least that's only offensive to one of the senses.
