When a police dog is killed in the line of duty and his grieving human partner seeks answers from a local medium, the canine-loving cop soon discovers just how helpful his fallen partner was in this supernatural comedy starring Jack Wagner and Daphne Zuniga. Kyle's partner Hunter was killed in a high profile stakeout, but a series of strange events lead the officer to suspect that his four-legged friend isn't as dead as it may seem. Convinced that Hunter's ghost is trying to reach out from beyond the grave, Kyle implores local medium Madame Wanda and her gifted son Howie to help him find out if Hunter really is still around. As the séance gets under way, Howie soon begins to show signs that he is possessed by the spirit of the deceased police dog. Later, when Howie begins to display a variety of traits more suited to man's best friend than man himself, Kyle gets one last chance to avenge Hunter's death and finally allow his loyal partner to rest in peace. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

This exploitation flick chronicles the rise and fall of a country-rock superstar who bears a striking resemblance to the fallen King of Rock and Roll--despite the film's disclaimer that the flashy, pill-poppin performer decked out in his bejeweled polyester jump suits does not represent Elvis. The singer's girlfriend is coincidentally played by Ginger Alden, the last girlfriend of the real Elvis. Songs for the film are done by Roy Orbison. ~ Sandra Brennan, All Movie Guide

Released originally under the title Lisa, Lisa, this seedy murder-fest was later re-titled during drive-in circulation then again for its video release in 1985 as The California Axe Massacre to capitalize on the hype of another new arrival to video, Tobe Hooper's cult classic The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The film itself (actually filmed in North Carolina, not California) has little in common with Hooper's hit; the bloody revenge scenario is more reminiscent of Wes Craven's Last House on the Left. It involves a gang of grimy fugitives who hole up in the rural abode of a pretty but unstable young woman (Leslie Lee) and proceed to abuse her and her grandfather. Of course, things get out of hand from there, and the hoods kill the old fogey, which brings gory retribution as the sweet young thing brandishes the title implement. Painfully cheap-looking, this tawdry exploiter is too slow-moving to sustain the interest of chop-em-up fans who might be lured by the title. ~ Cavett Binion, All Movie Guide
