Russian Roulette (1975)


AVCO Embassy Pictures
Directed by Lou Lombardo
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Timeless Media Group)

Suspended Canadian cop George Segal has to save the life of a visiting Russian diplomat to get his job back. He tangles with the KGB in a series of violent encounters. He gets drugged (more than once), only to wake up in some kind of perilous situation, from which he manages to always escape by luck more than anything else. Characters are poorly defined and motivations are vague at best, in this derivative cop thriller shot in and around Vancouver.
