Abel Ferrara’s Ms .45 coming to 4K Ultra HD from Arrow Video

August 3, 2025 by Gary Collinson

Arrow Video has announced that it is bringing filmmaker Abel Ferrara’s cult revenge thriller Ms .45 to 4K Ultra HD with a brand new restoration of the 1981 exploitation flick starring Zoë Tamerlis as a mute woman out for vengeance.

New York, 1980. Raped at gunpoint on her way home from work, mute seamstress Thana returns to the safety of her apartment only to be assaulted again by a burglar; but this time she fights back. Bludgeoning her assailant with an iron, she takes his gun and begins to dispose of the body piece by piece. Fuelled by her trauma, Thana sees that sexual threat is everywhere in the city and decides to bring a .45 calibre solution to the problem.
