Editorial Review: Description: Season Hubley (HARDCORE) stars as Princess, a loving single mom turned Hollywood hooker who can provide any depraved pleasure for the right price. But when a volatile cop (Gary Swanson) uses her to trap a sadistic killer, Princess becomes the prey of a psychotic pimp known as Ramrod (a mind-blowing, take-noprisoners performance by Wings Hauser). Tonight, the neon jungle of Los Angeles will explode in an orgy of vengeance and violence. And the only outlaws more desperate than the hustlers, whores and freaks that rule the streets are the VICE SQUAD. "You may think you’ve heard of every sickness and perversion movies like to titter about," wrote Rex Reed in The New York Daily News, "but there are quite a few in VICE SQUAD you’ve never dreamed possible!" Pepe Serna (SCARFACE) and original MTV VJ Nina Blackwood co-star in this vicious ‘80s action smash from the creator of the ‘schoolgirl hooker’ hit ANGEL and the director of DEAD & BURIED. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Good action from the 80's!Vice Squad is a great action movie from the 80's if you like shows like "The Shield". The movie stars a young "Wings Hauser"(Ramrod) and "Season Hubley"(Princess). Ramrod is a pimp in the dark streets of L.A. who kills one of his ladies of the evening (Ginger) who is friends with Princess. After speaking with the police, Princess is distraught over the death of her friend Ginger and agrees to set up Ramrod. The two battle it out in the means streets!! Check out this action thriller!! Rating:  - Are you a cop?WOW, the adventures of Princess, Blue Chip, Ko Ko and all the rest are brought vibrantly to the screen in this DVD release of a campy and over-the-top look at a typical night on the Hollywood Vice Squad. You know the story, Princess has a daughter who is sent away to San Diego with her rent-a-nanny while mommy turns tricks to pay for her stuffed animals. In the mean time, a friend has been pimp-sticked to death and a Vice squad officer guilts Princess into wearing a wire to entrap the psycho pimp ... Read More Rating: - Obscure Gem From the EightiesIn the eighties there were two indelible portrayals of psychotic pimps, Morgan Freeman as Fast Black in "Street Smart" and Wings Hauser as Ramrod in "Vice Squad". Unfortunate for Freeman, "Street Smart" was a rather forgettable venture but Hauser was luckier. Hauser's contribution is reason alone to see "Vice Squad" but the picture is so much more. The film works on two levels. Firstly, it's a cinema verite document of the vice scene in Hollywood. Secondly, it's a dark comedy about the proclivities ... Read More Rating: - WOW! Finally on DVD!Back a few years ago, this movie was really hard-to-find on VHS. Anchor Bay, as always, has done a stellar job on the presentation of this movie. Everything from utilizing the original movie poster artwork for the DVD cover, to the picture quality- it's all perfect. If you like trashy, gritty, and violent movies, this movie will deliver big time. I remember it was released in 1982, but kept being brought back as an added feature at the drive-ins here in Toronto, right up until 1984. If you are a fan ...
