Absolute schlock, to be avoided at all costs, 6 September 1999
1/10
Author: Ted Stanulis (tstanuli@ameritech.net) from Ann Arbor, MI

There is nothing at all redeeming about this film. It is very bad and not in such a way that it is even remotely funny. Horrible plot, acting, and writing and incredibly cheap production values to boot. This film makes "The Jackal" look like a work of art.
