My review was written in September 1985 after watching the movie on World Video Pictures video cassette.
"The Fix", alternately titled "The Agitators", is a dull action film lensed about two years ago in North Carolina.
Vince Edwards heads an okay cast as a drug kingpin, whose front is a business as a building contractor. With henchman Charles Dierkop (the familiar sidekick of the "Police Woman" tv series) and Robert Tessier (bald action film villain) he decides to use a traveling country music band as dupes in his drug shipments through the South.
Federal Drug Enforcement agent Richard Jaeckel is hot on Edwards' trail, using his agent Julie Hill to infiltrate the operation. Several country music songs later, Jaeckel literally talks Edwards out of his upper hand in the climactic confrontation.
Vet B-picture director Will Zens ("The Starfighters", "Road to Nashville") stages okay chase scenes but fails to develop this material beyond its opening premise. As a result, film is unengrossing (with the country music padding showing through) and went to home video directly without a domestic theatrical release. Oddly, the video cassette displays no distributor logo on tape or even the usual FBI warning crawl.
