Directed by Christopher St. John
My rating: 2.5 stars out of 4

(VHS, Unicorn Video)
Christopher St. John is an unhappy cop in Washington DC. The public hates him because he is a "black pig" (to put it nicely), his boss doesn't appreciate him, he argues with his wife about money, his girlfriend and daughter (not the same person) are on drugs. He escapes his dreary life by daydreaming. Mostly he dreams about being an astronaut and returning to his home town a hero. He also dreams about running around naked in the jungle with his girlfriend. These scenes are well done and almost surreal. It suffers some from being dated and the downbeat ending is a bummer, but overall a treat for fans of early 70s independent cinema.
