Hilariously Bad Cheese

The Most Dangerous Game meets Rambo via One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Now, those are all good films, (yes, even Rambo), so that might give you the impression I was intimating this was also a good film.

Well, you would be wrong. Not good, but definitely entertaining. But for all the wrong reasons.

This is a hilarious low-budget actioner, to be enjoyed while in the thrall of a few adult beverages. The plot is quite minimal: insane asylum inmates are hijacked in the woods for a real life hunt by lowlife scum. Quadruple-threat (writes, directs, stars, composes/sings the title theme song) David Heavener (and I chose the word "threat" carefully) is a budget Rambo fighting and killing to save the noble loons. There's even an A-Team type "Time to Weld" sequence. Best quote: "When you kill a man, you better make sure he's dead."

A few items not mentioned by the other commenters that add to the film's allure: Not one, but TWO former Sweathogs (that's from the TV show Welcome Back Kotter, you young'uns), Washington and Epstein. (What, you thought Travolta was in this thing????) DJ and voice over legend Gary Owens has a very brief role. And, most importantly, Danielle Brisebois is topless. In the water. That will surely attract some additional viewers to this lovable mess.

I would suggest an amazing double feature: this film first, then followed by the best/worst Die Hard rip off ever lensed, Anna Nicole Smith in Skyscraper. You'll thank me later, as long you continue drinking throughout both films. You'll need to.
