Recently obtained a bootleg copy of Bare Essence. When I started watching it, I wasn't really impressed at first with some of the actors' abilities to pull this one off - some of the acting was a bit contrived. But I was pleasantly surprised and liked it very much! The end was great. Bruce was great as usual. Love him! Linda Evans was certainly a beauty in her time. Gosh to have cheekbones like her's! Wow! Donna Mills as well. I wasn't sure who Genie Francis is and to find out who she is (not a fan of General Hospital) and that she met her husband during the filming of this miniseries and then to find out he was Captain Riker in the Star Trek: The Next Generation series. Awesome!

The Road Raiders
(1989 TV Movie)
Not bad....
29 August 2007
I thought it was entertaining... When I first started watching the film, I just wasn't sure it was worth my time. I did enjoy it. I am a die-hard Bruce Boxleitner fan. I think he is an outstanding actor and although he did do many movies and televisions shows, I don't think he got the recognition he deserved. Some of the scenes were a bit cheesy but so what. Bruce is such a dream. Kind of reminded me of the Mel Gibson's Mad Max movie "Road Warriors" where the survivors built vehicles out of leftover parts. Its a tough movie to find but should be added to any BB collection. I try very hard to get every one of his movies and/or TV shows and I have pretty much succeeded in doing that. Linda
