“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

Mind Trap (1984)
aka Danger USA
This is a rare VHS mindless actioner that I ended up enjoying. A scientist that has developed a mind control device and an ability to come back from the dead (just to get killed again) is killed with all of his family excepting one daughter, which daughter then seeks revenge and tries to uncover the cover-up and stop the evil guy bent on world domination. Dan Haggerty and Lyle Waggoner have cameos, which is why I watched this. There's a woman who does a terrible Russian accent. There's silly shoot-outs and an ending that's truly implausible. It's nothing special, but it's been a while since I could sit through a film I reviewed and not wish I were watching something else.
