Hard to believe I never watched this back in the 1980s, but I finally closed a gap in my Walter Hill movie viewing.
Kind of a West Side Story meets The Warriors film, shot on some great sets with a great soundtrack! A who’s who of character and second tier actors are in this. Michael Pare, Diane Lane and Willem Defoe are the standouts, but Fear’s lead singer, Lee Ving, does a great job as Defoe’s second in command henchman.
A really fun watch, I enjoyed it a lot.
