Negative Positive
Title: Under appreciated
Review: Despite being inexplicably released direct to video, this is an entertaining and suspenseful film featuring a few big name actors, shot on location in Arizona. See IMDB for a complete synopsis- I was hoping to find a copy on DVD rather than VHS, but that doesn't seem to exist. The film was originally shot for theatrical release, under the working title "Rope of Sand" on locations in northern Arizona as well as Tucson. If you watch carefully about five minutes in, the detective played by Scott Glenn walks past a tv news crew at the scene of a murder- the bearded fellow in the black jacket next to the tv cameraman is yours truly, and believe me, it was pretty cold in Tucson the night that scene was shot! I never got paid for that extra role, and the film bypassed the theaters, so my 15 minutes of fame (actually, 15 frames) is reduced to a VHS tape. Still, I rather enjoyed the film, and its fun to have a copy to show the grand kids someday.
Is the review positive or negative?
