To call Ripped Off the second half an adequate drive-in double feature is being charitable. However, the movie does have some redeeming qualities for the Drive-In community. The redeeming quality is Catherine Spaak. If you are familiar with her, you might be entertained.

As for the movie itself, Robert Blake was probably in a career slump and did this Italian action drama filmed in Albuquerque, NM. The film was shelved or played in second-rate drive-in/walk-in grindhouse theaters and quickly disappeared from the screen. A few years later, Robert Blake hit it big with Baretta, and this film was reissued to the same type of theaters for another go-round for newfound Robert Blake fans.

A decent action film with Blake giving it his all, but I think this is the TV edit I saw a while back. I would like to see its original edit.

AKA The Boxer. That version is the exact same print as this version and is under the Tango label.

"I don't know what goes on in the DVD production world, but I guess if it makes a buck, people will do it. I'm talkng specifically about finding very old, poor quality features and/or TV shows and converting them to DVDs, making people think that on a DVD, the feature will show the same quality DVDs have been known to display. This is a prime example of crap DVDs. The movie itself might be great. You buy it because of sentimental value only to have your memories shattered by a DVD company out there who says "hey, if we produce and distribute garr-bauge discs, people will buy them." Thus, the giant end-cap basket in the middle of Walmart with DVDs at 2 for $10. I usually gauge my purchases by the company that puts out the discs. For instance, if it's Universal, New Line, 20th Century pictures or the likes, the DVDs are normally high quality. I will, however remember the company that put out this Robert Blake disc. If they allow this dung to reflect their respect for thier customers, they will get NONE of my money."
