Reviews from Letterboxd:

1. mrmoviesrd – ★★½
   “Fred Williamson leads a cast of some recognizable names as a motorcycle cop who must catch a killer that’s terrorizing a city. Cynthia Rothrock is a supporting character, and Robert Forster and Frank Pesce show up too. It’s never boring, but it could have been fun.”

2. HAL – ★★★½
   “This sleazy, schlubby cop flick is from ’97 but feels like COBRA and has so much fun/weird/cool stuff it’s one of my fav discoveries this year.”

3. dirtyleroybrown – ★★★
   “A serial killer is out to punish women for enjoying s&x, and the only ones who can stop him are ‘out of control psycho cops’ Fred Williamson and Cynthia Rothrock.”

4. cozzled – ★★★
   “Not nearly enough Cynthia Rothrock, but I’ll take any amount. Bushwick Bill randomly shows up, which I wasn’t expecting. The movie’s sleazy and tries to say something about media but mostly wants to be cool.”

5. giallolad – ★★
   “Robert Forster looks like he doesn’t know what movie he’s in. It’s got that cheap late-90s crime thriller vibe with odd pacing. Still kinda fun in a bad way.”

Meta Description:
