    So nice to hear of others who truly appreciate this story... so well written by Stuart Woods. A very good social-history/crime/drama very cleverly woven. I believe this was the best mini-series ever. Great casting and acting!!! I wish more people had seen this story! The thread about casting an updated remake is very interesting. Perhaps we'll see that one day! I'm starting to read some other Woods books. Very good continuity of the characters and themes. I'm a big fan!

    My entire family was riveted to the "Chiefs". I feel that it is one of the best written and casted films to this day. I'd promote this movie until I die. It was intelligently written, eluding to hideous crimes without the overkill of blood and gore. Anyone that appreciates old cars, old cycles and vivid acting would benefit to rent, buy or borrow Chiefs. I like to tell anyone that will listen that they will be on the edge of their seats for most of the movie. I was a teenager when it came on TV. To this day I can remember how I felt during the 'handlebar scene'. Sad to say, this movie's plot is the first thing I think of every time I hear of a disappearance or kidnapping in the real world. I'd rate this as one movie I would want on my TV line up once a year. A remake is in order if it could be cast with such strong actors again.

    This is the best miniseries ever put on TV.However, do not buy this in VCR format because scenes are cut out in order to save money and space.They record in EP so they can get most of the movie on it, however they still come up short. VCR 200 min. Original movie is close to 4 hrs Also the quality suffers. Thank You.

    I couldn't sleep last night after I watched it. I really enjoyed watching the movie. I watched it when it was first aired and again about 10 years ago and again last night. The acting was very even and very good. I was impressed that the local actors were as good as the "Hollywood" stars and future stars. Usually can tell the locals from professional actors 'cause they really stand out.
