I’ve decided to start a low budget franchise review only I’m starting from the last film and going backwards. Whatever I miss in continuity will be made up for in lack of continuity because as far as I can see the only constant is the lead, and he jumps from support to starring role once these bad boys go straight to VHS.
I chose “Relentless” a series of detective/police thrillers starring Leo Rossi in what must be his only shot at leading a film. He’s commonly known as the most enthusiastic bar patron in the bar scene in Jodie Foster’s semenal classic “The Accused”. He really gave that role an identity beyond “Guy that cheers on rapists”.
Let’s see how he does with a serial killer. He’s fat now but no less enthusiastic hopefully.
