I watched this movie the first time about 25 years ago on the telly late at night, and then again recently, and again late at night on the telly. Mark Hamill is eerily effective, cast against type as a psychopathic killer, he's so intense - it's obvious he relished the chance to play such a character, even if it was just in a lower-berth Cannon Group thriller. He's easily the best thing in this grungy little outing, clearly shot on a shoestring and very quickly. Still, the atmosphere is eerie, and it's a tightly told story. No real artistic pretensions (after all, it's a Michael Dudikoff vehicle!), just an in-your-face thriller.
