Storyline

BULLET TO THE FACE by Alan Spencer is a work of art, brilliantly written, and magnificently cast. I'm looking forward to more by Mr. Spencer as I grew up watching Sledgehammer, and am equally entertained by his recent work!!! I can't think of any series I can watch over, and over, but this one I can watch a Thousand times and still enjoy it. I have gone as far as to show clips of Bullet to an old friend who has been a main stream movie producer in Hollywood for over Thirty Years, and he agrees Alan Spencer has an incredible talent. I can watch Bullet over, and over so in all this being said I not only applaud the creative talents of Mr. Spencer, but impatiently await the release of his next project.
