“The Victim” has been routinely referenced as a classic grindhouse
production, out to charm fans of sleazy, violent entertainment. However,
writer/director/star Michael Biehn doesn’t put his best perverted foot

wrathful acts of bloodshed. While not without a few highlights, the
feature is disappointingly tame, missing a grand opportunity for screen
insanity. Biehn has a germ of an idea here, but lacks the sickness
needed to bring this tale of murder, sex, and feverish uncertainty to
