El guerrero de medianoche

My review was written in April 1989 after watching the movie on Raedon video cassette.

"Midnight Warrior" is a low-budget made-for-video feature that captures an authentic film noir mood in approximating the B pictures of yore.

TV star Kevin Bernhardt portrays a principled tv news cameraman in L. A. who resists the blandishments of his boss Bernie Angel, who is more interested in a fast buck than integrity. Pic documents in episodic form a series of assignments leading to the hero becoming cynical and replacing Angel as the exploiter.

Modestly lensed, pic is buoyed by a persuasive Bernhardt performance and capable supporting cast. Topic of tv news as exploitation remains a timely one and is treated convincingly here.
