Personal Comments
Of all of Pia Zadora�s major films, this one always passes unnoticed : it�s not as bad as
Lonely Lady, not as weird as Voyage of the Rock Aliens and it was released when Butterfly was still gathering awards. It�s not particularly bad, Pia doesn�t act better or worse, and with Telly Savalas' presence, it could easily be mistaken for a long Kojak-episode.
Fake-Out was also produced by Meshulam Riklis, who appears in a cameo as a business man who gets killed at the beginning of the movie. Director Matt Cimber appears as one of the gangsters.
