Review of Alley Cat

Alley Cat (1984)
1/10
Ugly and cheap and pointless.

Warning: Spoilers
It's not entertainment, and there's certainly no surprises in this horribly written and badly acted vigilante film about inner city crime and the citizens who step up to do something about it. There's a bunch of thugs terrorizing an already beaten down neighborhood and the strong willed Karin Mani decides that she's the one to do something about it, especially after her grandparents are attacked.

How any studio greenlit this script for production is the confusing part as the dialog is horribly bad even though the plot is cut right off the front page. Outside of Robert Torti (who plays a young cop who helps out the one note Mani), nobody in the cast had any familiarity to me. There's nothing in the story that hadn't been done before and much better. Poor sound makes this horrible to listen to, and the photography isn't much better.
