Directed by Greydon Clark
My rating: BOMB
IMDb
(DVD, VCI Entertainment)
Director Greydon Clark stars as a white Vietnam veteran who returns to his home town of LA. He looks up the father of his war buddy who was killed, a black man, in Watts to return his last letter. Instead he meets a neighborhood gang who spend the rest of the movie making his life miserable. It's supposed to be a dramatization of race relations, but it is so ineptly written, directed and acted that it becomes a farce of now politically incorrect attitudes of the early 1970s. Clark gives himself not one but two women, with numerous bedroom scenes, and a pool party with gratuitous nudity. Somehow old pros Jock Mahoney and Aldo Ray ended up in this as racist police buddies.
