Angel Town (film)

Angel Town is a 1990 martial arts film directed by Eric Karson and starring Olivier Gruner, who made his film debut as a French martial artist and foreign exchange student who helps his borders by using his skills against a local gang.

Jacques Montaigne is a French college student who heads to Los Angeles not only for school, but to help train an Olympic team of fighters.

He shows up a few days late (for a rendezvous with a girlfriend in France) and is given a list of houses where they may have rooms for rent.

It was because Angel's goons once again started trouble and Frank tells Jacques that she ended up having a massive heart attack, yelling for Martin.

Maria has learned what Jacques had been doing and she realizes that she can trust him and divulges the truth about Pedro's death and why the streets are no longer safe.

Opening his bedroom door, he sees the corpse of Angel's female driver sitting on his bed, back against a bloody wall to send Jacques a message.

With the help of Frank, who arms himself with a machine gun, the duo begin to shoot at any of Angel's gang who invade Martin's house.

However, just when Martin runs out of ammo, one gang member throws a stick of dynamite but is stopped by a returning Jacques.

Jacques finally tells Martin he did what he had to and the police show up, including a helicopter whose light shines on Angel.
