Интересные факты

Jungleground is a 1995 Canadian action film directed by Don Allan and starring Roddy Piper, Torri Higginson, Peter Williams, JR Bourne and Rachel Wilson. Piper plays a cop challenged to a high stakes escape game by the ruler of a violent no-go zone, who has kidnapped his girlfriend (Higginson) and threatens to kill her if he fails.

Production

Jungleground was made by two Toronto companies, Peter R. Simpson's Norstar Entertainment and George Flak's Performance Pictures, who had worked with Piper the year prior on Back in Action. It marked Piper's ninth feature film appearance. Despite its familiar gang-based storyline, the star vouched to rise above mere exploitation, saying: "We don't want this to be just a fighter punching out a bunch of kids.

Principal photography took place in the Toronto metropolitan area between mid July and late August 1994, shortly after No Contest, another Norstar production in which Piper played a supporting role. The announced budget was CAD$2.5 million. A section of Cherry Street, a public road in the south of the city, was flanked with rows of derelict cars to transform it into the main artery of the film's fictional crime district.
