Hit & Run

Literally. And by smoke I mean cigarettes, in an incredibly sensual manner. If you have a smoking fetish, then this movie and Kari Wuhrer are for you. The tease and attitude are unmistakably intentional. She knew exactly what she was doing and she played it up, to perfection.

If you're a fan of the incredibly stunning and sexy Kari Wuhrer (Kari Salin in this one)...this is a must-see. The acting, apart from Wuhrer is very "Showtime late-night". Which is ok, because that's where I saw it. Kari plays an abused hooker with an attitude (she's a natural). But it's the scenes in which she shows...uh...more that make it worthwhile. Two very revealing sex scenes- one in a barn, and one in a hotel involving handcuffs are unbelievable. Well, actually Kari is unbelievable. This one has a few different names but...whatever you want to call it. See it for ALL of Kari.

Exploitation movies get redefined every ten years or so. Changing tastes is not so much the reason as the changing ways to deliver this stuff to its public. In the era of direct to-video, and made-for (late night) cable, the genre has become fragmented, but prospered as well.

One consistency throughout the ages is the need for a sexy woman-she needs to act a bit, but not too much because her actions should always speak louder than her words.

Kari Wuhrer, once of MTV's Remote Control, is moving to the forefront here, She's a better actress than Shannon Whirry, younger, hipper than Shannon Tweed. Keep an eye out for her.

At 86 minutes `Hot Blooded' as it was titled for DVD is not a major waste of time. And if you keep your finger near the ‘fast forward' button you can probably cut the time spent in half.

As for David Keith, your 10 or so minutes are not worth whatever pittance they paid you. Step up to the plate son, or step away all together.

I actually had hopes for this movie since I've seen Kari in a few other things and think she has some talent. Alas, this dud is a case study in what not to do in a screenplay. Completely undefined characters without a shred of likeability, and no plot whatsoever. Is it a road/buddy/comedy/thriller/romance/drama? The filmmakers don't have a clue, and neither do we.

During a sleepless night, I was switching through the channels & found this embarrassment of a movie. What were they thinking?

If this is life after "Remote Control" for Kari (Wuhrer) Salin, no wonder she's gone nowhere.

And why did David Keith take this role? It's pathetic!

Anyway, I turned on the movie near the end, so I didn't get much of the plot. But this must've been the best part. This nerdy college kid brings home this dominatrix-ish girl...this scene is straight out of the comic books -- or the cheap porn movies. She calls the mother anal retentive and kisses the father "Oh, I didn't expect tongue!" Great lines!

After this, I had to see how it ended..

Well, of course, this bitch from hell has a helluva past, so the SWAT team is upstairs. And yes...they surround her! And YES YES! The kid blows her brains out!!!! AHAHHAHAHAHA!!

This is must-see TV.
