Many Sundays throughout the year we will be highlighting a few titles that are considered to be "stuck" on VHS, with no physical releases since the format (discounting VHS transfers on DVDs, etc.) for various reasons, i.e. legal ownership disputes, music licensing issues, or perhaps just perceived lack of interest.

‍

Once again join us for the intersection of Stuck on VHS & $5 Wings Night! We continue our work plumbing the depths of the "less than 500 Letterboxd logs" category, and coming up with gold this time from director Gregory Dark (NEW WAVE HOOKERS, NIGHT OF THE LIVING BABES), and co-starring G. Gordon Liddy(!). Upper tier bonkers performance from Wings in this one in this sci-fi crime thriller set on the sleazy streets of Hollywood.

From the back of the box:

"Hollywood, CA--Cybernetic mind-control devices are being implanted into the bodies of the members of S.Q.U.A.D.: an elite anti-crime and terror team of this city's police force. These officers have been programmed to annihilate terrorists, muggers, pimps, thugs, and street scum in general, then secretly self-destruct. Patrolman Arliss Ryder is about to reveal this horrific plan when he makes a chilling discovery: He's been assigned to S.Q.U.A.D.!!

‍

STREET ASYLUM stars WINGS HAUSER as Arliss Ryder, the cop in a race against time to save his friends, his sanity, and his own life; the notorious G. GORDON LIDDY stars as the psychotic mastermind of the sinister scheme.

‍

STREET ASYLUM. The most dangerous criminals aren't terrorizing the streets, they're patrolling them."
