      Audience Member The Hammer writes, directs, and stars as an ex-con who becomes the messenger of death after his wife is killed for running up a whopping cocaine tab that she could not pay. I am pretty sure Cameron Mitchell is wearing women's glasses in this. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Williamson produces, directs, stars and even lends the story in tale of ex-con seeking vengeance for his wife's violent death. Spans two continents and several major urban centers; there are a lot of people who must answer for Mrs Turner's death. Aimed squarely at Williamson's fans; Fred even throws a few gratuitous product placements in for King Cobra malt liquor for good measure.
