MORGAN PAULL, JUNE FAIRCHILD & TARA STROHMEIER 'DIRTY O'NEIL'

But he’s not only in it for the good times. He digs his job… Protecting the small town where he resides… and when three grimy criminals attack one of his girlfriends, he has to step up and really take action.<br />
<br />
Paull, in a Cult Film Freak podcast interview, and who played the Tyrell agent Harrison Ford replaces in BLADE RUNNER, noted: “So that’s the chance of the business. Harrison Ford was up for several movies, including DIRTY O’NEIL. He got the hit, I got the bomb… What can I say?”<br />

<i><br /></i>
<i>It’s the lowest budget movie in history, believe me… I mean our lunch was whatever they could find at a local hotdog stand... But it was a lead role and it was supposed to be funny, a takeoff on all the cop movies that were going on… And it had potential of being funny... </i><br />

<i>Art Metrano was funny and I was trying to be somewhat funny… And the premise was funny. But you know – it was what it was.</i>   <br />
