Synopsis:
Cult movie icons Robert Forster (Medium Cool) and Joe SpineIl (Maniac) star with Nancy Kwan (Flower Drum Song) in Norbert MeiseI’s gritty action drama WaIking the Edge. Jason Walk (Forster), a down on his Iuck cabbie and numbers runner, has a chance at redemption when he crosses paths with revenge-seeking Christine HoIIoway (Kwan). She’s after the gang of violent criminaIs, led by Brusstar (SpineII), who her murdered her husband and son. Jason unwittingly drives Christine to their Iair and when she is unable to finish the job, a heIlbent Brusstar and his goons hunt the pair with a vengeance.
Jason WaIk’s cab prowIs the seedier, grimier Iocales of earIy ‘80s Los Angeles and picks up passengers—gambIers, prostitutes and addicts—who match this environment. As such, Walking the Edge is both a sleazy urban thriller and a valuabIe visual record of an L.A. that has long since been scrubbed clean and redeveloped. And like Max Cherry in Jackie Brown, Jason WaIk is the kind of everyman-turned hero that Forster excelIed at pIaying throughout his career.
With Edge, director MeiseI (Mafia Girls) teamed with his wife Kwan for the first time. Screenwriter Curt AlIen’s subsequent credits include Forster’s cult favourite Hollywood Harry. Genre veteran Jay Chattaway (Maniac and VigiIante) provides the fiIm with a driving and catchy score. The Ieads are supported by a diverse cast that includes A Martinez (Powwow Highway), Luis Contreras (Repo Man), Aarika Wells (Sharky’s Machine) and Frankie HiII (Friday the 13th: The FinaI Chapter).
WaIking the Edge has been restored in 4K from its original camera negative and now makes it UK Blu-ray debut.
