Anyone ever see this early 70's tv movie? It's one that has escaped me.

Of course, I have seen it.....like 3000 times.......It is great Culp. He plays a suburban husband and father whose life is suddenly turned upside down by a bunch of ruthless teenagers who decide to make his families life miserable when Culp, as Jim decides to take them on (as they are doing bad things). They toss fire into his home, run down his dog, etc........but its a great ending and a victory for Culp in the end. I have the movie on VHS somewhere and watch it over every now and again. I don't think you can get it on DVD yet, but maybe one day.

Oh, yeah, I've seen it, too. Very good Culp, and apparently based on a true story, of a decent, civilized man having to turn savage to get kid hoodlums out of his and his family's life. Pretty intense, really, seeing what we all no doubt have within us, the capacity to reach a limit and make a very strong stand. Culp is in just about every scene, so great show for Culp fans.
It shows up on ebay and ioffer all the time.

I like that we get to see his romantic side with his wife and his fatherly side with the children......yet, that end scene is so Bill Maxwell.......huh?

There's a "trailer" posted at YouTube for that movie apparently put together by a site that sells the movie on DVD. I haven't purchased from this site yet but I've been thinkin' about it. LOL www.youtube.com/watch?v=msQDaf6hwZI"This is Jim Kiler! You wanna play come on out!!" |
