Critical appraisal[]
The Weissers write that, by using many common plotlines in the Roman Porno films, Female Leopard functions as both an hommage to and parody of the genre. Assault! Jack the Ripper (1976) and Zoom Up: Rape Site (1979) are two of the films specifically referenced. Female Leopard's storyline combines a serial-killer/rapist theme with the light and humorous style from director Yasurō Uegaki's Pink Curtain films. One of Ohara's last films in the genre, the Weissers judge it to be among his best work.[3]
