FX – Deadly Effects F/X 1986 • Action/Adventure Thriller • 109 min • US Cast Jerry Orbach Diane Venora Brian Dennehy Joe Grifasi Bryan Brown Director Robert Mandel A crime thriller about a disturbing and violent game of cinematic illusions, starring Bryan Brown and Brian Dennehy. Rollie Tyler is regarded in the film industry as a master of special effects. Whatever a director or screenwriter imagines, Rollie can bring to life. During the filming of a movie, Rollie is contacted by an apparent producer—who is, in fact, an assistant to the head of a Justice Department unit responsible for protecting and reintegrating high-value witnesses from the criminal world. Rollie is then hired to stage a scene of pure illusion in real life: faking the death of a major gangster. Reluctantly, Rollie executes the job flawlessly—unaware that he has just become an instrument of a sinister conspiracy placing his own life at risk. He decides to strike back using the tools he knows best: the fabulous illusions of cinema. The special effects department in filmmaking is designated by the letters “FX.” These are the most fantastic—or most trivial—illusions that must be physically executed in front of cameras during filming. From bullet impacts on bodies or props, to explosions, fireplace flames, or broken glass—everything falls under special effects. “F/X – Deadly Effects” is thus an exceptionally well-conceived thriller exploring the ever-fascinating interplay between fiction and reality—the very essence of cinema, one of humanity’s most admirable art forms. The tribulations of a brilliant cinematic special effects technician, drawn into a convoluted and perilous conspiracy that may cost him his life, provide Robert Mandel with the premise for an utterly captivating and ironic film in which appearances are rarely what they seem. A superb exercise in suspense, action, and dazzling illusions, starring Bryan Brown and Brian Dennehy in the lead roles.
