Cast: Robert Blake, Billy (Green) Bush, Mitchell Ryan, Jeannine Riley, Elisha Cook

One-off foray into film by former record producer Guercio ('Chicago, Blood Sweat & Tears') features Blake as a diminutive motorcycle cop who has fantasies of becoming a comic-strip hero, but finds around him a world of corruption and despair. This odd, existential, intriguing film is something of a minor masterpiece, and just wait till you get to the mad final sequence. Remarkable.
