Unfortunately for him, things quickly go from bad to worse one day when he reluctantly picks up a woman in his taxi who asks to be taken to a couple of locations.

That being said, when she is eventually released she becomes obsessed with the idea of obtaining her revenge upon those who killed her family. Reviewed by Uriah43 4 / 10 Hampered by Low Budget and Uneven ActingĪfter witnessing the murder of her husband and son at the hands of drug dealers, "Christine Holloway" (Nancy Kwan) is emotionally traumatized to the point that she is temporarily committed to a sanitarium to assist in her recovery.
