it introduces us to the bad guys/cult, The New World; a bunch of psychos trying to kill innocents because good people are weak. Lame motto, but the bad guys are great. They bang axe heads together and once you hear that noise it is forever stamped in your brain. Brian Thompson is the big bad as the Night Slasher. Damn; another great name. And gorgeous super model Brigitte Nielsen is the damsel in distress, by seeing something she should not have seen. The rest of the cast is all recognizable. Reni Santoni is his partner, Andrew Robinson (Scorpio Killer in Dirty Harry ) is another detective, Art LaFluer and Sledge Hammer, himself, Dan Rasche. Seriously! Every role is a face you recognize.

This is 80s action in all its glory. From a creepy 80s horror movie chase scene in a hospital, to a sick car chase scene that the Fast and the Furious guys wish they could pull off. Remember no CG, real cars driving on real roads? Insane. Man, the 80s were awesome… all culminating into a big final action scene that feels like it takes 45 minutes. Just crazy stunts, explosions, guns with unlimited bullets. Just the best. I never understood how this never got a sequel, it made good money and Stallone was the man when this came out.

Fun fact, his son Panos was able to make his first film on the dvd sale royalties of Tombstone that his dad would get. OK, OK; back to this flick. Just a fun action flick with a ton of super quotes. “You’re a dis ease and I’m the cure” is one of Stallone’s best. Find it on dvd/blu-ray, because I don’t think I have ever found it on a streaming service. Thank god I didn’t because it would not get turned off.

Extra-extra bonus . The flick is violent, so is a total 100% R flick, but, sup posingly, there was a cut so violent that it was hit with an X rating. I don’t
