Storm Trooper

Anyone who thinks Kool Moe Dee, Carol Alt, and Corey Feldman comprise a list of good actors must be smoking something I'd love to try sometime. Where to begin: lousy soundtrack, hammy acting, "action" in places. This is the typical amateurishly written hack fodder that washed-up has-been and never-was's love to star in. I actually felt embarrassed for the "stars" in this "film". The only thespian missing to top this turd was Gary Coleman, who if he would have been in the movie, would have made it at least somewhat howlingly bad, rather than just plain bad.

There was one part in the film where Carol Alt screamed, "DO YOU THINK I'M AN IDIOT?!?" Yes, Carol, I do, your agent does, and PLEASE for the love of all that is decent and holy... GO AWAY and stop degrading yourself like this! This film is something Anna Nicole Smith would take part in.

I would tell you what the plot was, but that would be one more sentence fragment to this article, plus my mind drifted many times during the movie anyway, so I barely paid attention.

Good Action-Movie with a fine cast: Rick Hill as crazy Denton is fantastic, Roger Wade as the Killer Caulder shows what a good actor can make out of an short appearance. Corey Feldman looks funny with his one eye, Ross Hagen and John Terlesky have short but good appearances. Carol Alt looked much better in italien and german TV-movies. But you'll always know what you get when the director is Jim Wynorski. Lots of action and good actors in a simple plot.

An abused housewife (Carol Alt) receives a surprise visitor on a dark and stormy night when a man with amnesia (John Laughlin) shows up at her house. Searching for him is a government agent (Zach Galligan) who has hired the trigger happy team of a sadistic mercenary (Rick Hill). That might be trouble but the housewife and stranger have secrets of their own.

I don't want to go further into the plot as there are a couple of fun twists and surprises along the way. I've always liked Laughlin so it is cool to see him in a lead. He is quite physical in the role and there is one great single take shot where he takes out three members of the team that is really well done. Hill is also really good in his role as the no nonsense military guy and his intro where he is torturing a guy while being apologetic is great. A big surprise here is Alt, who gives a good performance that belies her model background. There is also an impressive motorcycle and semi-truck chase that may seem familiar to folks as it is taken from Wynorski's 976-EVIL II. Co-stars include Tim Abell, Corey Feldman (wearing an eye patch!), Rocky DeMarco, Jay Richardson, Ross Hagan, Kool Moe Dee, and John Terlesky. Yes, we get the first two Deathstalkers in Terlesky and Hill in the same film!

This film is not only bad it is poor. But, this one is so bad you have got to see it. I love really bad movies that are trying to be good. The acting is bad, the lighting is bad, the direction is bad, the lighting is bad, oh, well, you get the picture. When you have an afternoon free watch this stinker. While you are laughing it will be hard to remember, this is not a comedy.

I think this is the worst movie I have seen since "Mortal Kombat 2". The action (including the effects) is like in a cheap Glen A. Larson TV show, the acting is terrible and the dialogs are even more stupid than in MK2. Avoid at all cost.
