Hollywood Vice Squad (1986)

In the seductive yet seedy underbelly of Hollywood, three gritty teams from the Hollywood Vice Squad are submerged in a twisted nexus of crime. They grapple with a tangled web of cases, each more sinister than the last, clashing with the Mob's illegal betting ring, a depraved BDSM porn director, and an aged, ruthless gangster exploiting teenage girls in a harrowing prostitution ring. The street-wise Officer Chang, with his trusty partner Stevens, takes on the daunting task of cracking down on prostitution. Chang ingeniously transforms into a clichéd Asian tourist, a clever guise to gain the trust of streetwalkers before springing his trap. However, danger lurks around the corner when a disguised foe pulls a knife on Chang, thrusting Stevens into a pulse-pounding chase. Meanwhile, Officer Betty Melton, a greenhorn eager to prove her mettle, stumbles upon a backyard BDSM porn shoot involving a seemingly underage actor. Despite her superiors' reluctance, Betty appeals to Captain Jensen, sparking a tense endeavor to unmask the sleazy director before another innocent life is exploited. Elsewhere, the imposing Officer Tank and his partner Daley are on the trail of Jesse, a proud, elderly African-American bookie operating for Mob boss Luchessi. They need Jesse's cooperation to infiltrate the Mob's illegal betting ring, but can they ensure his safety amidst the unforgiving world of organized crime? In the midst of these entangling investigations, a distressed mother, Pauline Stanton, ventures into Hollywood in search of her runaway daughter, Lori. The Vice Squad suspects the innocent girl has been ensnared by the merciless gangster Walsh, who lures naive girls with dreams of stardom, only to condemn them to a life of addiction and prostitution. Officers Hawkins and Judy, top undercover agents, are assigned to expose Walsh's heinous operation and rescue Lori from his clutches. As the officers navigate this perilous labyrinth of crime, they must outwit Walsh's sadistic madam Veronica and her trigger-happy henchman Daniello in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. From high-speed pursuits to subterfuge and undercover operations, "Hollywood Vice Squad" plunges viewers into a volatile world where heroes are forged in the crucible of vice, and survival is anything but guaranteed.
