Redemption Road was made under what is now recognised as a tax scam, rather than a tax scheme (made on the deferred 40% alone). It was never finished and with the death of Ken Sharrock would never be finished. The were a limited number of VHS copies prepared for the DCMS sign off which had music and titles added on video, but the film itself is missing a number scenes and shots and what is edited is barely past assembly stage. So the screenplay might not be brilliant and the directing may be 'boring' however without a finished film i would say difficult to judge. Also Pauline Quirke, Mark Benton, John Thomson and Rachel Stirling aren't quite what I would class as 'B' list talent.
