Paper Mask
1990 · Directed by Christopher Morahan
Charlie Sheen and Michael Biehn lead a SEAL team against terrorists. Released into the same air as Top Gun and Iron Eagle, and forgotten by everyone except your uncle.
Why It's Cult
Navy SEALs is the deeper-cut military action movie — the one that rented at Blockbuster for years without ever quite breaking through. Sheen at peak Sheen. Biehn doing what Biehn does. The action is competent. The dialogue is not. There is exactly one scene anyone remembers, and even those people aren't sure which scene it was. Pure ambient cable energy.
The Plot, Officially
With the papers of a young doctor who died in a deadly accident, the ambitious male nurse Matthew manages to get hired as a doctor in the casuality department of an hospital in Bristol. Nurse Christine believes it's only his nervousness, which makes him "forget" the most basic procedures. But even her help cannot prevent that his lack of qualification soon has deadly consequences...
