''The Drug Connection'', also known as ''The Sexy Killer'' is a 1976 Creator/ShawBrothers film starring Creator/ChenPing, the studios' leading sex symbol and femme fatale icon, co-starring Creator/YuehHua.
Drugs have overflown the streets of Hong Kong, and when Wan-fai (Chen Ping), a nightclub hostess, discovers her sister had died from a drug overdose, and the police are unable to take actions due to restrictions from bureaucracy, she decides taking matter into her own hands. Hey, they call this movie ''The Sexy Killer'' as it's foreign release title for a reason, you know.
A sequel is quickly released the following year. Titled ''Lady Exterminator'', and with Chen Ping reprising her role as Wan-fai, the movie details the first film's aftermath; Wan-fai is now serving a prison sentence over the massacre she caused in the first movie, but when a new drug lord hits town, Wan-fai is given a second chance thanks to her friend, Officer Deng (Yueh Hua) from the police force, where she is granted a pardon for going undercover in the new drug ring.

!!Both movies contain examples of:
* ActionGirl: Wan-fai, a brawler-turned-vigilante who can kick all kinds of ass. And in the finale when she get her hands on a shotgun, she proves herself to be ''damn good'' at using it to take names.
* AssholeVictim: Since the villains are of a drug trafficking ring who takes delight in causing teenagers to be hooked on drugs and have resulted in the deaths of several innocent people, including Wan-fai's sister, they all had it coming when Wan-fai comes for them and kills their members slowly and brutally. Especially applies to Boss Wu, who commands the flow of drug supply within the city and couldn't care less about how many people had died from overdosing, [[spoiler: where his death via being pumped full of lead by Wan-fai is meant to be as cathartic as possible]].
* ColdBloodedTorture: Officer Deng is subjected to a savage beatdown by drug dealers while investigating them, badly crippled and barely surviving the process. He's rendered out of the action for majority of the movie.
* CopsNeedTheVigilante: Well, Officer Deng is Wan-fei's only backup in her one-woman crusade against drugs, and he ends up getting hospitalized and put out of action by the end of the first act.
* DrugsAreBad: The movie pretty much nails the "drugs = bad" message as the flimsiest of excuses to have Wan-fai involved in one action scene after another. In fact, within the first few seconds of her screentime, the film has Wan-fai finding out her sister had died of an overdose and her immediately exclaiming, "Drugs! I hate drugs! They are my number one enemy!" while the film dissolves to its opening credits.
* FanService: The opening scene features plenty of naked extras playing prostitutes, with their breasts completely exposed. And Wan-fai is played by Shaw Brothers' resident MsFanservice, Chen Ping.
* ForeignRemake: The first movie is a quasi-remake of ''Film/{{Coffy}}'', although the sequel is a standalone story.
* FourEyesZeroSoul: Boss Wu, the bespectacled drug baron, and also a DirtyOldMan to boot.
* GirlsWithGuns: One of the earliest example made in Hong Kong cinema.
* GroinAttack: When a drug dealer tries choking Wan-fai from behind, she managed to subdue him with a backwards heel-kick into his nuts.
* HoneyTrap: Wan-fai uses various methods of flirting and seduction, to lure drug dealers into bedding her before she kills them brutally.
* RealityEnsues: The first movie had Wan-fai taking down the drug ring, by killing over a dozen drug dealers including their boss, Wu. The sequel starts with Wan-fai serving time in prison over the many killing she comitted.
* SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou: Chen Ping, in both movies, is about to blow your head off with a shotgun!
* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: Wan-fai managed to get her hands on a shotgun in the first film's climax, and uses it with deadly accuracy taking down multiple drug dealers. In the sequel, she had TakenALevelInBadass and uses the shotgun as a default weapon. It's right there in the poster!
* VictoriasSecretCompartment: This is where Wan-fai hides her razor blade in the first movie to slash a drug dealer's throat.
* VigilanteMan: Wan-fai is a Vigilante Woman hell-bent on taking down a drug ring to avenge her sister's death.
* WeHardlyKnewYe: Wan-fai's sister, who dies of a drug overdose ''right before the opening credits'', although her death do serve as a catalyst for Wan-fai to go on a rampage in the drug underworld setting off the rest of the film's plot.
