Producers Jack and Joe Nasser team with director Keoni Waxman for this biopic exploring the tragic life of Playboy Playmate Anna Nicole Smith. Dancer and singer Willa Ford stars as the voluptuous Texan blonde who married geriatric American oil tycoon J. Howard Marshall II before rising to fame as Playboy Playmate of the Year in 1993. Later, Smith's life took a dark turn when her 20-year-old son, Daniel, died of an accidental overdose while visiting his mother and newborn sister in the hospital shortly after delivery. The deeply troubled mother would suffer an eerily similar and lamentable fate just five months later when, in the midst of multiple lawsuits concerning her lavish waterfront home in the Bahamas and infant daughter, Dannielynn, Smith herself died of an accidental overdose in Hollywood, FL. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

This direct-to-video thriller stars Jason London as a grungy-looking Seattle psychopath setting off bombs so as not to lose his Japanese sweetheart. Lori Petty, sporting a truly odd coiffure which must be her hair growing back from Tank Girl, plays a hard-bitten FBI agent determined to take London down. Subplots include Petty's squabbles with her boss and a visiting Japanese policewoman whose interests conflict with those of the Bureau. Despite its low budget and somewhat cliched plot, the film is well-directed by Keoni Waxman and should please mad-bomber buffs.
