A truly bizarre film in which a kind of city Tarzan wants to take revenge on the scoundrels who murdered his parents when he was still a child. He is supported by a social worker Jane (what's in a name?) and sporadically practices some martial arts moves . With Knepper as the 'wild thing', an actor better known from Prison Break. A low budget thriller but at times reasonably fascinating 80s nonsense like you don't see anymore. A curiosity that was also written by John Sayles.

A mediocre film about a boy whose parents are murdered and who grows up alone in the city. A fairly original premise, a kind of urban Tarzan. Sometimes a bit messy, and it could have been more. Clearly a product of its time (the music and set design), and that certainly has its charm.
