DEADLY BREED is a 1989 action thriller from the guys at PM Entertainment, and one of the better I've seen from them made that year. That doesn't make it particularly good, however, it's just that the others have been truly pitiful. This one's about a group of renegade cops who decide to make it their business to murder any non-whites in their area, and the one good cop who investigates and vows to track them down.
The first half of this film has some engaging mystery while the second descends into the usual violent action nonsense. At least this film has a fast pace and lots of incident to see it through; the death medley scene is a hoot, and the cheap budget is put to every bit of use throughout. The hero is saddled with a really annoying actress for his wife who is in some scenes which veer into bad taste. William Smith has a small cameo as the main villain. Watch out for some stalking point of view shots and TERMINATOR-style suspense music.
