The search for the world's least interesting movie poster might be at an end; the one for Brazen Impact looks like a couple who aren't getting along decided to pose in front of an expensive car that they don't really own but took the photo in order to pretend they do.
The film itself popped up on Plex here in the UK this week, and is as nightmarishly low-rent as the poster suggests. The star names here are George Stover, from Don Dohler films, and Sharon Smyth, who was a child actress in Dark Shadows. The rest of the cast come across as elderly relatives, who've had their arms twisted into appearing in the film, or someone's buddies who are all trying to act tough for the camera.
From what I saw of it the most noteworthy thing about Brazen Impact is the name of the lead character...which I'll never get away with mentioning here... the PG-13 version of the name would be 'Excrement Charlie'. At one point he goes off on an overseas trip, merely so that they can cut in someone's holiday video of Madrid, all filmed from a speeding coach and on a different format to the rest of the film! I have to confess that I couldn't make it much more than half an hour into Brazen Impact, but what I did see wasn't very brazen and there wasn't much impact either, just lots of yakking in cheap hotel rooms. A heir apparent to 'The Guy From Harlem' school of filmmaking inertia.
