Former NFL defensive lineman Rosey Grier is the sympathetic bad guy in this late 1970's flick otherwise known as "The Glove: Lethal Terminator."

Talk about low budget. Victor Hale (Grier) is a former prison inmate who turns up outside the door of various prison guards to dispense his own brand of justice in the form of "the glove" the same punishment he got in the big house. Victor looks something like a baseball catcher from the future in his ill-fitting get-up and steel-plated glove. Boy, is that glove lethal. Victor swings it wildly, demolishing everything he hits, including cars and bathroom fixtures. It seems to have about the same destructive power as a sledge hammer basically. Now, while I probably wouldn't want to be hit with it, I can think of about a million other things that strike me as more frightening. Ooh look, a big dude with a glove. Apparently there just wasn't a lot of creativity in the late 1970s. The film was made during the Carter administration after all.

Actually, Grier is hardly in the film as it follows private investigator Sam Kellog (John Saxon) as he tries to find Grier. Grier calls Sam on the phone a few times, referring to him as "hound dog", which is good for a chuckle I suppose. We know that Victor isn't all bad since he plays guitar and sings the blues to a small boy in his spare time.

Ultimately, we discover that the criminals aren't really the criminals and the good guys aren't really the good guys in this topsy-turvy world. Yes, this movie has all the thrills of watching your microwave.
