This was a good thriller directed by Ted Kotcheff (First Blood, Uncommon Valor, Weekend at BernieŽs), written by Robert Mark Kamen (Karate Kid, Taps) and starring Michael OŽKeefe, Karen Allen, Peter Fonda, James Woods, Brian Dennehy and Elizabeth Ashley.
Young athlete named Danny (OŽKeefe) falls in love with a girl (Allen) and she leads him to a religious cult camp called Homeland. HeŽs brainwashed by the cult and the leader (Fonda) gives him a new name, Joshua. His parents (Dennehy & Ashley) canŽt get him out so they hire a professional (Woods). "10,000$ cash, no questions asked."
Awesome acting from everyone and i especially loved the haunting de-programming scene.

Good movie. It ran a lot on cable back in the 80's. James Woods is excellent, as always.
