Chinatown

Synopsis

Set entirely at night, it has a perfectly cast St. Croix as a guilt- ridden ex-cop, caught up in a new case to prove his lover Asia Carrera did not murder her husband, the dastardly Randy West. Morgan wrote the script as well as taking the role of West's business partner (importing Greek statues and antiques), but the plot twists he wrote are too obvious and detract from the otherwise engrossing murder mystery.
