PRIME CUT
In this lurid crime thriller, a vicious Gene Hackman is “Mary Ann,” a man who runs a Kansas City slaughterhouse where he grinds his enemies into sausage and auctions off women as sex slaves. When he delivers a gory package to a Chicago mob outfit instead of the $500,000 he owes them, a tough-as-nails enforcer (Lee Marvin) is sent to collect the debt. Action-packed and brimming with graphic violence and sex, PRIME CUT features ruthless performances by Hackman and Marvin, and introduces a young Sissy Spacek in her film debut.
