Movie Ad of the Week: THE GAME (1990)


Curtis Brown wrote, produced, directed and starred in THE GAME, which opened at Times Square's Criterion dungeon in April 1990. When we interviewed Terry Levene in December '89, he mentioned that he would be handling the theatrical release of this film, but there was no sign of Aquarius Releasing's involvement four months later when it finally opened. Note the positive review quote from our friend and favorite critic Lawrence Cohn. Did this obscure $500,000 feature even make it to VHS, let alone DVD?
