Despite BLOOD MONEY sitting at the bottom end of the Belfort/Shuster scale in terms of quality, it at least deserves mention for the dodgy dealings surrounding its making. Teaming with father and son duo Harry and Brian Shuster, a pair of colonial South Africans who owned a few L.A.-based restaurants and had already racked up a couple of low-budget credits themselves, between 19, Belfort amassed a slate of eight films that included: two vehicles for wrestler Hulk Hogan ( The Secret Agent Club (1996) and Santa With Muscles (1996) ) the David DeCoteau double-whammy of Prey of the Jaguar (1996) and Skeletons (1997) and the Bruce Campbell-starring ‘ Die Hard (1988) in space’ romp, Assault on Dome 4 (1996). Matty sticks this compelling but technically sloppy thriller with some murky behind the scenes facts under the microscope.įor a brief moment in the mid ‘90s, stockbroker-cum-conman Jordan Belfort - ‘The Wolf of Wall Street’ - dabbled in moviemaking.
