Viewing Notes
Very explosion-y mid-90s DTV pablum with Roddy Piper in the middle of a gang war in this borderline sci-fi thriller. The feels like a movie that was a direct influence on Begos & Co. for VFW. There’s a huge gang called the Ragna Rockers that control part of the city and all the drug trade and whatnot. Piper gets caught up and finds himself on the run from the hoard of gang members. While not a good movie it is entertaining for a mid-90s piece of trash cinema full of explosions. So. Many. Explosions.
This is one of the few Piper joints that I don’t have on VHS.
