    Story Synopsis:
    Joey Gazelle (Walker) and his young neighbor Oleg Yugorsky (Bright) find themselves "Running Scared" when they get caught up in the middle of the Russian mob. Dirty cops, child pornography, and plenty of blood and shooting keep the suspense high and move this story along all the way to its gritty end. (Tricia Spears)

    The anamorphically enhanced 2.35:1 DVD picture has a gritty texture provided by inherent film grain that is complementary to the

    Reason #116 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    Widescreen Review is my favorite magazine because it is different from all the other A/V magazines. The ads are better, and it seems like all the others (that I subscribe to) have the same boring ads. You also have better product information in your equipment reviews. I love the DVD New Release section. It tells me how much I have to save up for DVD purchases. My favorite section is the Coming Soon To A Retailer Near You section. I have learned so much from this magazine I use information from it every day of my life. I am an A/V fanatic. (ask my wife). Anyway, I will subscribe to this mag forever. Thanks for such a great magazine
