Finding out the hard way that mixing business with pleasure is off the table. In this classic 90s action scene, Lorenzo Lamas and his partner Kristen Cloke remind us all that if he loses his cool, they are “both screwed”. Sometimes, being the best partner just isn’t enough!

A delinquent girls’ gang pursues a nice ingenue linked romantically to the male leader of a rival gang, and apparently to the murder of one of their members.

After a tragic rooftop struggle leaves a rival gang member gone, young Barbara Bonney is relentlessly pursued by the Black Widows. Desperate for protection, she turns to Eddie Rand and his crew, the Vandals, only to discover he plans to use her as bait in a dangerous rivalry. Ultimately, she must decide between fleeing to Phoenix or facing the authorities.
