Incompetent regional moviemaking

My review was written in June 1990 after watching the film on Arena video cassette.

Amateurish direction sinks "Ballbuster", a private eye film made in Indianapolis that went direct-to-video in the U. S. A.

Ivan Rogers is an ex-cop nicknamed Ballbuster; he's hired by Bonnie Paine to find out if her neighbor (W. Randolph Galvin) is really a murderer.

As the female cast tries to seduce (sometimes successfully) Roberts, film soon disintegrates into awkwardly staged action scenes that resemble a home movie. Rogers retains his sang froid mien but can't save this one. Ending is strictly arbitrary.
