Trivia
Like several other movies and TV series, the movie depicts Istanbul as a desert, or near a desert, which fits the traditional narrative of many historical romance pieces (western princess abducted by a sultan etc). In truth, the nearest desert to Istanbul is over 7,000 miles away.

Goofs
In a close up in the final shootout, it's clearly visible of one of the bad guys is holding a rifle shaped piece of wood and not a real weapon.

Beautiful nude martial artist makes White Fire very memorable

It is important that you watch the big box TWE VHS tape which has a clear vibrant picture instead of the fuzzy washed out DVD put out by Westlake entertainment. Like many old movies, the DVD is made from a far inferior print to the VHS. You really want a nice clear look at Belinda Mayne's body.

There are a couple of scenes that make this movie a classic. The one that comes to mind is Spectacular Belinda Mayne taking a nude swim and providing full frontal nudity view of her spectacular body. Think a Ursula Andress, but better looking and nude. After some playful banter with her brother, Ingrid (Belinda's character) is attacked by a gang and uses martial arts while wearing only a white towel to kill or dispatch them.

The movie is fun, campy and watchable. You might also enjoy the sadistic female villain.
