Review of The Night Stalker

Lead actor who ive never heard of does a pretty good job as the whiskey-and-smokes-three-day-stubble-cop. I would like to see more action movies starring him, but unfortunately, he's already like 58 in this movie, so I dont imagine that there were very many after this. Jive talkin pimp character adds some interest. "ayyy b@#$, don' chu know dat good things can turn to s@#$ reeeeeal quick?!" I like when jazzy fresh jumpity jive hot hustle playas talk cool like that and let me know how stale my own vocabulary is. Lead cop is in love with a hooker young enough to be his daughter and I didnt even question it because he has a badge and therefore, at least 50 bucks a night. What else... oh, and young cadet (trooper? What do you call a first year cop) cop is in love with the big hairsprayed mullet blonde hooker instead of the brunette because this is the 80s and they kiss in the precinct in slow motion like Breakfast Club style and I couldn't tell if I should attribute it to the grainy low quality of the film, or the way the scene was lit, but they looked sweaty, like this was the last kiss of the night and not the first, ya know what i mean? Big evil silent villain stalks in some cool creepy scenes and has a head that is shaped in what I can best describe as Dorito made flesh. Jerky dirty mustache cop receives pleasure from a hooker but then finds out its a guy in a wig. Lead cop Napier shoots a guy so good he flies 50 feet into boxes and walls and stuff and i almost spit out my coffee it was so hilarious. Later, Napier cop barely dodges a bad guy's bullet and then his cop partner runs toward him in slow motion screaming his name and I forgot the character's name so ill just say it sounded like this: "PAAAAAARTNEEEEER COOOOOOP!!!!!!" And dont miss the classic warehouse shootout ending, in which theres a 20 man battle with invincible villain, who has an assault rifle. Somehow Lead Cop has climbed a chain hanging from the ceiling and shoots the villain WITH A FLARE GUN and sizzling him up like bacon. Again, dont watch this movie with food or drink in your mouth. It is slow in some parts, but more often that not, it is action-packed sexy horror awesome.
