Band of the Hand (1986)
Member Rating:  
Former Starsky and Hutch star Paul Michael Glaser warmed the director's chair for Band of the Hand. The film zeroes in on five juvenile delinquents who are plucked from their various detention facilities and unceremoniously dumped in the wilds of the Everglades. The boys begin to panic until hardcase Vietnam veteran Stephen Lang arrives. Lang explains that they've been paroled in his custody, and that it is his task to teach them how to work as a team in order to survive. The logic of this plan is to whip the boys into an elite vigilante unit, then sic them on the various drug dealers of America. The film features early performances by Lauren Holly and Larry Fishburne and Bob Dylan can be heard singing the title song. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    This movie is a must see and I think that it should be viewed by all, because it shows just how we should be. Working with each other and not trying to destroy each other. The story line is strong, and shows human nature for what it is. We all from time to time try to get over on one another, but we rarely consider the consequences. Get this move one way or another.

    This was a good movie that got lost in 86 because of Top Gun, Karate Kid 2 Platoon and various other movies.
