Young Sam Neill looks like a Sigourney Weaver and David Bowie face swap - @Monday, November 12, 2018 3:24 PM

Wow, Sleeping dogs surely looks interesting in the US compared to the "Hongkong" version. - @Sunday, November 4, 2018 2:06 PM

I remember I first saw this firm when it was shown in America because I am a Warren Oates fan. At the time, I didn't know anything about Sam Neill. But it soon became of my all-time favorite thrillers. I wish I could find the soundtrack to it. Since this film was never widely circulated in America, the soundtrack is impossible to find. If anyone knows where I can download it, I would be very grateful if they shared that information. - @Sunday, April 15, 2018 10:26 PM

Wow. Sam Neil at the beginning of his long illustrious career as nz most famous actor. Who would of thought, from these humble beginnings, hed go on to hollywood along side some of the worlds biggest names in some of movledoms classic films. (Jurassic park, The Piano, The Hunt for Red October, Omen Final Conflict...) As well as star along side Hollywoods biggest names (Stallone, Keitel, Streep, Shwarznegger, Kidman...) to name a few. Good on ya Sam. A true kiwi icon. - @Saturday, May 27, 2017 9:30 AM
