4 out of 5 stars No Justice Like Street Justice.......2006-11-14

When I first watched this movie, I didn't really like it. I thought it was corny and there wasn't enough gore exploitation. Upon second and third viewing with a group of friends it turned out to be more fun like watching a live cartoon. I've seen some horrible B-movies that are not even worth the time but "Savage Streets" delivers the goods in more ways than one. Outrageous dialogue and action sequences, Linda Blair's nipples peaking through her shirt in the opening sequence, unwanted boom mike appearance,Establishing shot of a Doctor's Hospital that literally spells it out! This cartoon tone stays throughout the movie even in moments when it shouldn't. Like Linda Blair grieving with her friends in a nightclub LOL. If you can throw all logic out the window, then sit back and enjoy the show. Linda Blair gives a good performance as usual and the soundtrack is pretty nice vintage 80's rock. I just wish the violence was a little more graphic than implied. They could of took advantage of the R rating a litte bit.

5 out of 5 stars masterpiece, the greatest movie of the 80s.......2006-02-17

Holy God, this is truly a work of art. Danny Steinmann is an underrated master of cinema. He has done some of the best film ever made. Friday the 13th part V is one of them. This movie got everything, sexy Linda Blair doing nude scenes, plenty of action, an awesome soundtrack. This flick deserves to be on dvd with plenty of extras. Watch Linda Blair as she goes against a gang of nasty bad guys and try to avenge her sister's rape. Classic stuff here everyone! It 's a crying shame that this movie is out of print. Try to find it and you will love it, at least if you have good taste in movies.

masterpiece **** out of ****

3 out of 5 stars meet Danny Steinmann.......2006-01-03

[good things]
It was a great revenge flick, with a great performance by Linda Blair. Linnea Quigley had a supporting non-speaking role that she did an awesome job with, plus she was absolutely adorable in this movie. It was a typical 80's movie, and since it was done by an ex-porn director (Steinmann) it had that element as well, alot of gratuitus nudity and bush shots.


[the bad]
The movie seemed to a bit too sleazy, turning it into more of a softcore movie than anything else. Could have used more blood.


[final thoughts]
I think this movie was more an exploitation film than anything else. There was a bit too much nudity, it seemed like scenarios were invented just to fit nudity in the mix (i.e. the fight in the shower). I still like this movie alot though, Linda Blair and Linnea Quigley do an excellent job despite the lack-lustre directing and screen writing. There are about a handful of scenes where you can see the boom-mic come down int he shot-- oops.

4 out of 5 stars Actually very good.......2005-10-17

This was a surprisingly good movie, with descent acting,a great plot, and an equally satisfying lead actress. Linda Blair stars as Brenda in this motion picture and adds a lot to the movie as well as the role. In the end, all i can say is that you should give this movie a chance, like i did.

3 out of 5 stars Alternately campy & powerful: these punks really are savages.......2004-12-27

It's tough to get a fix on this movie: it's a boisterous, R-rated camp-fest one minute(featuring a group of kids, including Linda Blair, who look far too old to still be in high school)and an unabashedly brutal trash-flick the next. It has more spirit and drive than Linda's "Chained Heat", and the kids' inter-relationships and tough talks with the school principal are cynically amusing, but the much-discussed rape scene is extremely nasty, as is the sequence with the girl on the bridge. Suddenly these hot-shot punks become murderous, psychotic thugs--yet the tone of the picture never changes. The images are very disturbing, the violence boardering on realistic, but the director keeps it all hopping mad--like a nihilistic cartoon.
