yes and this bizarre feature be write by john sayles . shot in toronto and it yet another 80 era feature about the danger of the urban jungle and where the police fear to go and the homeless and the criminal class be the only inhabitant . into this mix come the myth of wild thing and a feral young man raise by a bag lady after his parent be murder by a dirty cop on the take ( maury chaykin ) and chopper and the local crime lord ( robert davi ) . stir in the local do gooders ( priest sean hewitt and clueless social worker kathleen quinlan ) and and you have a recipe for some rather unexciting action sequence . davi be the standout amongst the cast and and cinematographer rene verzier do a pretty good job . otherwise this be a rather lumpen action pic that would not satisfy action fan and will leave sayles admirer slack jawed .
