(1983) Deadly Intent
THRILLER
It centers on an archeologist, Raymond Keaton (Lance Henrikson) chasing another fellow archeologist by using a rifle as he is attempting to run away with a bag with a statue inside. And Raymond manages to knock him down to the ground, he then pulls out a knife and just when you think he was going to stab the guy lying down with it, he then uses it to pluck the gem out of the statue. Raymond is back in the US and has his artifacts on display sponsored and displayed by gallery owner, Elise Marlow (Maud Adams). Raymond shows up to the gallery with his wife, Laura Keaton (Lisa Eilbacher) and are in the midst of breaking up. And the first person she walks toward and stands next to is her best friend, Viki (Pamela Roylance). And before Raymond leaves, his sponsor then grills and cross examines him whether he is keeping anything from her. And upon Raymond driving back home,is when he is being chased and followed resulting to a serious car accident. After his burial, his wife Laura is then followed and pursued viewers soon find out it was the gem at the opening. Gem dealers and former peers sought after it including Elise, Harley (Solly Marx), dealer, Hernando Ramirez (Curt Lowens) and Laura's eventual love interest, Jeff Kirkland (Steve Railsback).
One of those movies that looks good on paper but it is like as soon as you watch it, you are asking more questions we are not going get any answers to, such as when deaths do occur, how come police are not so much involved. When Laura's house is broken into and ransacked, the first person she calls is her love interest Jeff- and not the police! Like, huh!!
