    some good stunts
    A stuntman dies falling from a helicopter during filming. The man's brother Glen Wilson (Robert Forster) is joining the crew. On the way, he picks up reporter B.J. Parswell who is writing about the dangers of stunt work. There are more accidents on set or it could be deliberate.

    This is most notable for being New Line Cinema's first production after being a distribution company. It starts with a very nice stunt and at least, the stunt work is all very nice. There are a lot of car stunts. It's a good behind-the-scenes representation. Even a simple helicopter hovering looks more dangerous when it is so close. The story isn't much. There are a couple of great actor but in general, the acting isn't that good. Just watch this for the stunt work.

    • Who turned out to be the killer?
    • I watched an interview on a tv show once, where the stuntman claimed to be the one that fell from the airplane, and survived!! Any ideas who this stuntman was?
