Viewing Notes
Reached in to my VHS vault (the shelf behind my couch) to screen Scorpion (1986), an absolutely humdrum action thriller directed by William Riead. “Thriller” should be used loosely as our protagonist (Tonny Tulleners) is as milquetoast as they come despite being a serious ass-kicker. As I described on GoMiso: Mustachioed super agent Steve Woods must save the country from terrorism one terrorist at a time. But it has its moments for decent watch.
