Movie starts off with a white dude getting followed around in a store, so already it's very unbelievable.He's a trigger happy LA Cop (That I do believe) trying to rescue a kidnapped girl, whose father is a key witness on a mob trail.Too many dudes in the movie for a long time, then finally a girl shows up and gives us a cliché shower scene that makes me think this is the the stable I expect from Fred olden Ray (or just what I love about his movies) I remember I had a DVD of one of Fred Olden Ray's movies and I had to send in a proof of purchase in order to get a picture of his sexy wife, Miss Kim. I think the film was Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers. It's the best and yet not the best standing point to judge all his movies because if you see that movie first, you're expecting some boobs to be flashed in all of his films.The film could definitely used a few more strip club scenes like they do in a lot of these b-rate movies today about the same issue (Hard ass street cop gets suspended for being too bad ass).It's a good Fred Olen Ray movie if not the best.http://cinemagardens.com

Renegade cop Nick Tyree (Richard Harrison) gets suspended after blowing away a liquor store robber who interrupts his alcohol purchase. Naturally, his hot headed chief wants him back when the young daughter of key witness against mob boss Johnny Ventura (Jay Richardson) is kidnapped because Tyree's law pushing ways are the only solution. Poor Richard Harrison never got a fair shake in the US. After traveling the globe from the 1960-1980s, he ended back up in America and got stuck in this Fred Olen Ray disaster. Not much really happens in this flick and Ray proves that sometimes he is only a step above Nick Millard when it comes to shoddy action. If the film is worth seeing for any reason, it is to watch the completely terrible performance by FX man Cleve Hall, currently on SyFy in his own reality series, as demented stooge Leonard. Sporting a GODZILLA t-shirt and teased hair, it is truly one of the worst performances I've ever seen. Troy Donahue shows up for two scenes as bar owner Slim. FOR's wife Dawn Wildsmith is the female lead and Angela Porcell, who provides the film's only nudity, is the kidnapped girl. And poor Joseph Pilato (DAY OF THE DEAD) gets one scene as a detective being tortured and has his name butchered in the credits (as Josef Piato).

'Terminal Force' also known as 'Last Instance' is probably worst movie made by cult director Fred Olen Ray. I always liked Ray's movies, even the cheapest ones like 'Alien Dead', but 'Terminal Force' is very bad movie where nothing really happens and for God's sake it supposed to be action movie! I don't know about the budget of this movie, but it looks like 10 000USD (and naturally it was much higher) Sad to say but even worst and cheapest Joseph Merhi movie looks more professional than 'Terminal Force'. Actors are doing their job like dummies. Richard Harrison was great in 70's and even early 80's but here he looks just bad, old and tired and his acting is just beyond bad! Unfortunately all other actors present same crap quality - Dawn Wildsmith is plastic like always and Troy Donahue who got credit as a star in the movie, appears maybe in three scenes as a bartender. The only good performance delivers Jay Richardson as a main bad guy. Such a shame his character has little to do in the movie and ends pretty lame. What else Can I say about 'Terminal Force'? Well we have two pair of tits and few funny dialogs,but that's all. Most of weapons are incredibly cheap toys and one (yes, only one in a whole movie!)car chase looks very poorly. Fred Olen Ray is cult director I agree, but if you want good action movie from him, go with 'Commando Squad'. 'Terminal Force' is really waste of time.

This film doesn't let you forget that "it's only a movie." So often it depicts people behaving as just doesn't happen in real life. It's about a cop who has been suspended while his alledged over-zealous use of his gun is investigated. His boss, however, prevails upon him to help in the interim with a case wherein the daughter of a police-protected witness against an accused racketeer is kidnapped. Another gal in the picture has been (or is she still?) a pretty floozie for the villain. Certainly nothing terribly original here...not annoying; but only mildly amusing.
