HISTORICAL INFORMATION: Busey Bulletproof is a 1988 American action film directed by Steve Carver and starring Gary Busey, Darlanne Fluegel, Henry Silva, Thalmus Rasulala, L.
Busey plays a reckless cop who travels to Mexico to retrieve a tank prototype hijacked by a terror group representing an alliance of anti-American powers. Fred Olen Ray wrote the film's story under the working title Thunderblast, and was originally going to direct as part of two-picture deal with CineTel, following Cyclone.
The bullet-riddled hero was lifted by Ray and frequent collaborator T. Lankford from one of their earlier scripts, which eventually found its own way to the screen as Deep Space. According to Ray's biography, the character moment where Busey pulls a bullet from his shoulder was expanded with material excised from the equivalent scene in Deep Space, which was abridged at the request of producer Moshe Diamant due to his distaste for graphic gunshot wounds. Bulletproof was intended as a step up in class for the fledgling CineTel, and the casting director told them that Ray-who had a reputation for campy films-lacked the pedigree needed to attract the reputable star they were looking for to headline. This paved the way for Gary Busey's signing, while Ray moved on to the lower-budget Commando Squad for Trans World Entertainment. Although he received financial compensation for his dismissal, his relationship with Hertzberg remained strained for several years.No info on Bonus Bulletproof #2 - But gunplay is assured!
