synopsis
Set in a ghetto neighborhood, the film follows the lives -- and deaths -- of a self-destructive street gang. At times, it looks as though an Important Message will emerge from all the wanton bloodshed. But the principal purpose of the film was to make a swift box-office turnover, not to educate. This direct-to-cable endeavor is unrated, but not recommended for impressionable children.
