This film had 2 bright spots: Melissa Leo, and Julie Newmar. Melissa Leo did a great job. Her acting was good, even though the storyline was weak in parts. Julie Newmar was beautiful, but was almost wasted in this film. I wish her part was bigger, and I wished she said purrfect more often. Overall, this movie wasn't bad. But it just felt like it was missing something.

Another 80s sleazefest that doesn't know what it wants to be. Some parts goofy sex comedy, other parts brutal drama. It's similar to other (better) 80s movies like 'Savage Streets' and the 'Angel' series.

This movie is a good depiction of life on the streets as prostitution is often glorified in other movies (eg Pretty Woman). This movie shows the grim reality and gruesomeness of a street walking prostitute. It shows the rough relationship between Pimp and Hooker. There are many scences in this movie that are funny too! One scene is where the pimp Duke comes back to the apartment looking for Cookie who got him abducted. Here in the apartment he rips the whole place apart and acts like a madman - quite funny! Then another scene shows Cookie and another prostitute forcing a client to act like a cow as they humiliate him. All in All, not a movie of the modern day, but still worth a watch. The action packed chase at the end is really adrenalizing as you feel as if you are in the movie too! Not to forget lots of violence in this film.

A forgotten gem. Melissa Leo is awesome. And Leon is the smoothest pimp ever put on screen. If you're looking for a film about "the life" -- there are better. But if you're looking for a moody piece that will make you feel nostalgic for 80's NYC, I can't think of many better.

This starts off like a movie of the week, then turns into a pimp slasher movie. It's a bit all over the place, with some over the top acting, but it's trashy and weird enough that it's worth a watch. Julie Newmar seems to be on a different planet though.

STREETWALKIN' is an '80s thriller that manages to be sleazy and suspenseful in equal measure, while at the same time providing a fitting snapshot of culture during the decade. Melissa Leo delivers a breakout turn as Cookie, a youthful prostitute who finds herself the target of psychotic pimp Dale Midkiff, who I've previously only seen playing good-guy roles. Midkiff is a revelation here, a really frightening individual and one of the stand-out antagonists I've seen in a while. The film offers plenty of grot, sleazy and nudity throughout, with sudden bursts of violence and a remorseless, TERMINATOR-style threat for our heroine. It's surprisingly watchable.

If you missed out on the 1980s sleaze disco scene this movie is for you. All the standard pimp characters are here with there assorted hos. The movie is surprisingly entertaining given that it is a rehash of every hooker-on-the-street film out there. It's not dull, which is the worst sin of an exploitation film. There was surprisingly good acting all around and I'd give almost all these actors a pardon for being in this film. The soundtrack is someone on a synth in their bedroom but that just adds to the charm. The badguy pimp Duke really outdoes himself bursting with horror-film rage and his favorite ho Cookie hands in a very decent performance as the naive happy hooker. You may want to take a shower after watching this or see a priest.

Streetwalkin' is no classic, but it does have some points in its favor. The film's gritty ambiance is certainly of tremendous value, and the undervalued Melissa Leo (21 Grams) delivers a reasonably good performance as Cookie, a young woman forced onto the streets when she runs away from home and her family refuses to take her back. She's also responsible for her annoying younger brother (Randall Batinkoff)and is soon in the grips of psychotic pimp Duke (Dale Midkiff), who likes to beat his women when he isn't selling them. The film's screenplay, a collaboration between Robert Alden and director Joan Freeman, takes a determinedly feminist stance, with all the male characters basically being scum. Alden and Freeman's only other credit is the nearly unwatchable rock and rock fable Satisfaction, which makes Streetwalkin' look like Citizen Kane in comparison. All in all, an interesting exploitation film that belongs more to the sleazy 70s than to the corporate 80s.
