Acting Home

  Kid

A young man (the 'Kid') returns to the small town where his parents were murdered whn he was a boy. He's there for revenge. Locals Kate and Louie befriend him much to the annoyance of some of the town folk.

Had a great time in Old Tucson, Arizona working with my friend and fellow Marine R. Lee Ermey on this film. I play a rich rancher with a beautiful daughter who rules the town near his spread with an iron hand. Lee plays a pal of mine from the old days when we were building the ranch, the town and our fortunes to our liking. During that time, we encounter a family of Hippies living a free-form lifestyle and try to drive them off. They resist and we kill the couple, not realizing they have a baby boy who survives.

The baby boy returns to the scene of the crime as a grown man with a head full of bad memories and a heart full of revenge. Naturally, he falls for my daughter and during a scene in which he has dinner with the family on my ranch, I get to utter some of the weirdest dialogue ever scripted. Low-budget but a lot of fun with Ermey and star C. Thomas Howell.
