Old Stuff
On Deadly Ground (1994)
Directed by Steven Seagal
Not only does this film star Steven Seagal, it's also directed by Mr. S., plus little Stevie "sings" one of the tunes on the sound track. What are you doing just sitting around reading this review? Get your butt down to the video/DVD store now!
Mr. Humble turns in one of his best performances as a brooding wildcatter who works for an oil baron played by film-slut Michael Caine. Joan "they-all-can't-be-The-Last-Emperor" Chen is also onboard as an Eskimo! Mr. S. mumbles and smirks his way through the Alaskan tundra while getting down with the natives.
Evidently, Stevie has seen "A Man Called Horse", "Never Cry Wolf" and "The Doors" and decided to steal and destroy what were basically good ideas from all of those films. I don't know about you but I sleep better at night just knowing that Seagal is out there defending our environment from big oil by snapping people's arms in half then threatening to rape their polluting asses while he's wearing expensive jackets made out of former wildlife. -- Rating: $9.50
