Gregg Henry (Body Double, Payback)
stars as Paul Ramsey, a musician that, through a case of mistaken identity and deliberate malice on the part of a negligent politician, ends up in a prison camp ruled by burly Captain Kinsman (Kennedy, The Eiger Sanction), his rogue assistant Sgt.
Whacker (Wainwright, Joe Kidd), and a pack of hunting dogs, led a vicious Doberman named Rattler.
In requesting to stay in Canada permanently, the actor claimed he was being chased by «Hollywood
star -
whackers» who he said were also responsible for the deaths of Heath Ledger and David Carradine.
It winks at this by not quite destroying a Pulp Fiction standee in a convenience - store shootout between Cusack's paid assassin Martin Blank and «Basque -
whacker from the Pyrenees» Felix La PuBelle (karate sensei to the
stars Benny «The Jet» Urquidez).
