The vehicle code named Thunderblast can withstand the impact of just about any weapon imaginable. Cuban Libayan and Russian terrorists plan to seize the much coveted battle machine at a Mexican village near the Texan border. A convoy led by the beautiful Lt. Devon Shepard is escorting Thunderblast when it is ambushed by the terrorists led by the Mexican General Brogardo and the Libayan Col. Kartiff.

The corageous Devon initially resists but is finally forced to cooperate when members of her convoy begin to be systematically executed. Only one man has the skills and knowledge of the area to rescue the hostages and Thunderblast: ex-government agent now LA cop Frank McBain better known as 'Bulletproof'. The Preppie Murder: Based on a true story The Preppie Murder begins on August 26 1986. This was the day that eighteen year old Jennifer Levin was strangled to death in New York's Central Park. The prime suspect Jennifer's nineteen year old boyfriend Robert confesses to the crime. The well to do young man insists that the killing was accidental he claims that it occured during a 'rough sex' session that Jennifer had initiated. The ensuing media frenzy forces the old 'she asked for it' defence to rear its ugly head. Oil: In a world reliant on fuel machinery oil fields mean wealth and fortune and the competition is fierce. Several oil wells in Abu Lambeth have caught fire and rival groups of fire-fighters have not been sent to control the flames. They'll end up battling more than just the blaze. It won't take much to turn the small flames into a billion dollar fire.
Once Upon a Time in America has a chequered history, having been chopped from its original 229-minute director's cut to 139 minutes for its theatrical release. The longer edition presented here benefits from having the complete story (the short version has huge gaps) about turn-of-the-century Jewish immigrants in America finding their way into lives of crime, as told in flashback by an ageing Jewish gangster named Noodles (Robert De Niro). On the other hand, it's almost four hours long, and this sometimes-indulgent Sergio Leone film is no Godfather. Still, it is notable for the contrast between Leone's elegiac take on the gangster film and his occasional explosive action, as well as for the mix of the stoic, inexpressive De Niro and the hyperactive James Woods as his lifelong friend and rival. --Marshall Fine
