After digging out my old copy of Lucas the other week, i was looking on IMDB at some of Corey Haims earlier films and stumbled across this one on Youtube.

I have to admit that i really enjoyed it, Peter Weller made a convincing bad guy in this who almost succeeds in destroying a family through his illegal choice of employment and his rage against the mum and 2 kids.

Christoper Collet was great as Corey Haims older brother in this.

Anyone else seen this film?

I have not seen it but I'll be sure to check it out. Thanks for the tip. Gotta love Corey Haim. Too bad there wasn't much love in the final years of his life.

OK. I watched it and thought the movie was great. It could have done with out a bit of that American hero stuff towards the end but overall it was pretty good.

I related to this movie a lot.

Peter Weller was fantastic in this movie. Weller always seems to be beating up on something: rats, kids, women. He doesn't discriminate.

TYW, thanks for the link.

Pretty good movie. Sort of a TV movie quality, and not what you'd call 'fun'.

Incidentally, nice username!
