I wonder if attack of the gryphon is going to be shown here? *goes into research mode*
hmm. I've been watching Deadly Justice for the last 40 minutes (not a very pleasent experiance I must say). And I still haven't had an Amber sighting. The chick who plays his daughter looks nothing like Amber. Could imdb have made a mistake? Is Amber actually in it, or will I have to try to procure some sort of time machine so I can get those 40 minutes back?
OK. Deadly Justice is about a cop who is very unpleasent for 45 minutes, is attacked and then becomes wonderful, right? Cos although the packageing of this DVD claims to be Deadly Justice and it stars a guy who looks like the right guy, none of the actors or plot description seem to match up with the imdb description of it, or any other Jack Reed movie.
No wonder it seemed different. turns out Amazon sold me 'The Rape of Richard Beck'. A TV movie from 1985 which, unsuprisingly, did not feature Amber. However all the packageing says it's Deadly Justice and the amazon page says it has Amber. No wonder I was hella confused. I spent much of that 90 minutes trying to work out why they kept calling Jack Reed 'Beck'. It seemed like an odd choice of nickname... And it does explain the lack of muder and corruption and high volume of rape...
Well that was a disturbing hour and a half... I think I'll go and have some nightmares now.. Stupid movies about rape and their emotional scarring.. I avoid this stuff for a reason.
