Seeking Source Suggestions: Women doing violence

[paxpinnae]

Hi!  I'm working on a multifandom vid.  For one section I need clips that have women fighting/ otherwise doing violence in a non-stylized way - think Cally Tyrol biting that dude's ear off in Battlestar Galactica, not Kahlan spinning around in a white dress tapping people with knives in Legend of the Seeker.  Unfortunately, most of the sources I have on hand focus on the pretty happy shiny violence, not the ugly bloody brutish violence, which is why I need help.  What sources, preferably shot in 16:9, have a lot of women beating the crap out of people in a non-sexualized way? 

oh god I sound like a psychopath. I'm not, I promise.

Sam Carter from Stargate: SG-1 might be a good candidate. Most of her fight scenes were from a distance--guns, bombs, etc., but there were a few notable exceptions. For instance, the ep in the first season where she has a knife-fight with a Mongol chieftain. (My personal favorite, however, would be the one where she punches Ba'al, in season 10--it was awesome, watching him go down like that, and it was awesome watching her (and the camera) be so matter-of-fact about it. Ba'al gives her crap, Ba'al will be in a world of hurt.) In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Kira Nerys got into quite a lot of fights, both in the show itself and in flashbacks--she grew up in the Resistance, after all. And iirc, they were pretty much all straight-up fight scenes. Come to think of it, Dax had some fight scenes as well that would probably do--I remember one episode in particular where she and a couple of old Klingon buddies from her previous host went on a quest for vengeance together against "The Albino." Now, Star Trek isn't known for its violence--it's fairly sanitized--but on the other hand, it's not sexualized either. The last minute and a half of this Kira vid has a few bits of her fight scenes, to give you a bit of a flavor of what they're like, and the vidder could probably tell you what eps had good fight scenes.
