4/5 grimey-ville
  by R. Robinson (N.C. by way of TX)
Poor A/V quality. Besides the amateurish acting and directing, this movie actual has a pretty good script. Grimey flick that I wish would added another 10 minutes worth of dialogue to showcase more of the game between pimps and hoes. But if you wish to learn more about their POV, get you coat pulled.

1/5 might never buy from amazon again

i clicked on the best available copy of the DVD, but then it suggested i go to another page "to get the best/lowest shipping charges", i did that but when i came back to the main page it said my cart was empty. so i went back and repeated the process without going to the 'best shipping cost' diversion. then amazon said you have purchased the DVD. there was no final look at the bill to OK it. a week later TWO DVDs came--2 of the same movie. before i even opened the first package i could hear the disc rattling around in it's package. and when i did open it and it fell out because it hadn't been securely attached to that center spoke. i saw it was all scratched up from rubbing against that center post. so i opened the second package and played that one. it worked fine until chapter 7 when it reverted to the beginning. after several attempts to get past chapter 7 i gave up. so i paid for 2 DVDs instead of one and neither worked. i am not intersted in any more copies, thank you, i got the jist of the film (i knew the lead actress back, jennifer mayo, in the 80's and since i am writing my bio i wanted to see her again. i saw her; mission accomplished, however i would appreciate a refund for one of them since your purchasing system is fraught with confusion. then perhaps i would use amazon again. but why don't you offer the customer a look at the bill before we agree it's correct.

5/5 Scarred
  by R. LEE (Malibu, CA, USA)
A revealing portrait of life in the underbelly of America with a gripping, hard edge look at Hollywood's meanest streets. It chronicles the trials and tribulations of a teenage mom who turns to prostitution to support her baby. Beautifully shot by Michael Miner (who co-wrote Robocop), it has an explosive noir street look that reminds one of Taxi Driver and Midnight Cowboy. Jennifer Mayo delivers a remarkably natural performance, and Jackie Berryman is quite endearing as supporting lead. The story spirals through a strange, lurid demi-monde of pimps and degenerates, both frightful and hilarious, but what prevails is the stubborn core of truth in Rose-Marie Turko's writing and directing. An impressive first feature with lots of pizzazz and invention. The barber shop pimp scene is a must see. Repo Man's Alex Cox served as assistant director and has a couple cameos. The film features a driving, at times excellent rock score, including the Plugz who scored much of Repo Man. A classic piece of Hollywood Boulevard history.
