3.0 out of 5 stars predictable...baseball scenes ok. announcer authentic, November 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Night Game [VHS] (VHS Tape)

wasnt the best i've ever seen...but if you like a good mystery and sports, this isnt a bad film..didnt make much of a splash when released, but i find those who see it like it..roy scheider is always strong..enjoyed the baseball play by play track throughout that added to the plot...

This review is from: Night Game [VHS] (VHS Tape)

In NIGHT GAME, a Houston-based, revenge driven nut who's specially equipped for homicide commits beachside murders of young blondes every time a certain Astros pitcher appears under the lights.

Roy Scheider is Mike Seaver, an ex-police detective trying to catch this serial killer. Karen Young as his girlfriend Roxy bares her chest in the first reel, while Richard Bradford as fellow cop Nelson seems caught in a profane loop. A few digressive sub-plots go unresolved in this very '80s, very ordinary, sports-themed crime thriller.


As of 4/09, "Night Game" was not available on DVD.
