Blood Debts (1985)
3/10
Richard Wants To Make Sure He Kills The Right People.
7 June 2020
Even looking not so hot with an ill advised mustache and showing his 50 years Richard Harrison (Mark Collins) brings this one over the top with an able assist from Jim Gains (Peter). After seeing his daughter gunned down Mark sets out for vengeance which involves vengeance killing followed by a massive amount of additional killing after his lovely wife Yvette (Ann Jackson) is kidnapped. Along the way he is joined by a hit woman partner Liza (Ann Milhench) who does a nice job in the action scenes. The days of having a Pat Woodall, Angelique Pettyjohn, or Pam Grier in a Filipino "B" movie were by 1985 over. Director Teddy Page was a little sadistic and rough edge in this one with some quite graphic scenes, but with the head of the local syndicate Bill (Mike Monty) aided by, in one of his finest roles, Jim Gains as Peter, the real brains of the operation, the story comes together enough to recommend Blood Debt. Richard Harrison isn't quite at his best in this one as his action leading man days were on their last legs. It's a pity that Richard did not have as good of a second career as a character actor as he did in his youth with some great performances including Bob Fleming Secret Agent Fireball.
