Donald G. Jackson's movies are always quiet different from other movies and that is good so. You have to watch most of them more than one time to enjoy them and to understand Jacksons own special sense of humor.
"Raw Engery" starts with B-movie Legend William Smith as Sam Stompner, an actor and producer, telling us about his son Bo, who is now on his trip to be a serial killer. We see Bo, played by Robert Rundle, B-movie Fans well-known as director of "Cybernator" (Starring William Smith) and "Divine Enforcer" (with Jan-Michael Vincent), having sex with two girls and shaving his head.(In one great scene Smith tells Rundle that he is not a bad guy, he is just a bad actor!) In the next scene Bo goes outside to his girlfriend Crystal (Amanda Rushing - great performance as maniac girl). They steal the car from director Donald G. Jackson (as Himself, enter his house and terrorize his secretary, played by the wonderful Heather Baker (she was a pretty good actress, very beautiful and sexy, with a great voice and I wonder why she stopped acting) and an actress who thought there is a casting.
Then it is getting curious. In Bo's daydreams a dream ranger enters the scene, Crystal meets an old friend of her, who is sitting now in a wheelchair and Donald G. Jackson again appears as Reverend Bloodwiser in a great cameo and a few scenes later we see Bo with full long hair (!!!) Crystal leaves the scene and the sexy Nancy Lynn Vaughn aka Nancy Vee enters the scene as Daisy Dukes, having - what else - sex with Bo.
If that all sounds curious to you and confusing, well it is but that makes this movie fresh and unique. "Raw Engery" is somewhere between Oliver Stones "Natural Born Killers", David Lynchs "Mullholland Drive", Quentin Tarantinos "Reservoir Dogs", Michael Hanekes "Funny Games" and Jean-Luc Godards "A Bout De Soufflé". Like William Smith says in the beginning: A celebration of the Cinema.
