Interesting gang film this one. Very low-budget stuff but it has itīs moments. Iīve never heard of the filmmakers and donīt see any familiar actors here so itīs pretty obscure stuff.
The film is set in Chicago and itīs one of those "one night" movies. Four yuppies lost their way and enter the "gangland" area where a gang called Chains rule. They help a rival gang member and get in trouble with the Chains. The group hide in an empty factory and thatīs where everything happens during the rest of the film.
The cast and acting is decent/poor plus the characters make pretty stupid decisions but isnīt that the case nine out of ten times in these kind of movies.
The real action starts after the first 30 mins so if you can get that far, thereīs few cool moments to enjoy. A little bit Warriors here, a little bit Assault on Precinct 13 there. While Chains is nowhere near those classics, check it out if you like the genre.
Special thanks to a friend down under who sent me the tape.
