Death Wish? Although I reckon you're right in seeing ISoYG as kicking off the whole female rape revenge thing. MS45, stuff like that. I was gonna say Thriller, but I expect more preople saw that after its recent re-release than they did at the time. I remember an absolute shitload of female rape revenge movies coming out in the mid 80s during the whole video nasty thing and they definitely seemed more inspired by ISoYG's popularity/notoriety than anything I can think of before it. I remember much talk in the school playground about this film where a woman wanks off a bloke then cuts his knob off. In terms of creating playground noise, that scene's only real rival was the one in the greenhouse in Scum.
