Deadly Surveillance, a 1991 TV movie, dives into the gritty underbelly of crime through the eyes of a detective. The atmosphere is tense, almost claustrophobic, as he navigates a web of prostitution and drug trafficking. The pacing can feel a bit uneven at times, but it adds to that sense of urgency. What stands out here are the practical effects—realistic and raw—which ground the story in a way that digital effects just can't replicate. The performances are solid, especially the lead, who brings a weary intensity to the role. It's that blend of action and psychological thriller that makes it somewhat distinctive in the genre, capturing the darker elements of the 90s crime narrative without overindulging in melodrama.
