Lean on Me is the true story of high school principal Joe Clark, who armed himself with a bullhorn and Louisville Slugger and slammed the door on losers at Eastdale High in Paterson, New Jersey. Brought in to save the school, he chained the doors to keep troublemakers out and strivers in. Some teachers and parents fought him. But many kids loved him. He turned the school around and his achievement became a national triumph. Morgan Freeman electrifies as Clark in an extraordinary performance as an extraordinary man. Director John G. Avildsen ensures that Lean on Me, like his Rocky and The Karate Kid is rousing, crowd-pleasing entertainment.

Season Hubley (Hardcore) stars as Princess, a loving single mom by day, a Hollywood prostitute by night. But when a volatile cop (Gary Swanson, The Bone Collector) uses her to trap a sadistic killer, Princess becomes the prey of a psychotic pimp named Ramrod (a mind-blowing, take-no-prisoners performance by Wings Hauser, The Siege of Firebase Gloria). Tonight, the neon jungle of Los Angeles will explode in an orgy of vengeance and violence. And the only outlaws more desperate than the hustlers and the freaks who rule the streets are the Vice Squad. You may think you've heard of every sickness and perversion movies like to titter about, wrote Rex Reed in The New York Daily News, but there are quite a few in Vice Squad you've never dreamed possible! Scarface's Pepe Serna, original MTV VJ Nina Blackwood and Beverly Todd (Lean on Me) co-star in this vicious '80s action smash from the creator of the schoolgirl hooker hit Angel and the director of Dead & Buried and Wanted: Dead or Alive.
