Undercover stories are normally sure fire and this one has a strong, basic plot – teen kid goes undercover as a member of a gang to find out who killed his dad. There’s all the familiar elements – ruthless cop who forces him to play for their side, concerned girlfriend, clashes in the gang – but it’s all done incredibly dully. I had trouble watching it all the way through. Roger Corman had some money in it, but the film could have done with more of his editing notes.
