So I managed to find this rare movie on an old VHS-tape, that somebody had taped off the TV in the early 90s (probably not many other places to find this movie), and I just watched it randomly because "why not - YOLO".
The movie revolves around a female attorney (played by the icy-eyed Meg Foster - same year she did "They Live"), who has taken a case regarding a young teenage girl, who was found beaten in a motel room, and initially claimed that a priesthood (called "Holden House") was forcing to make orphans at their disposal do terrible things. But no proof was found, and later she withdrew her testimonial.
The lawyer then gets some help from a private eye (Alex Carter - in his movie debut), and together they must fight a lonely battle to unravel the truth in the matter.
Overall, it was a quite tedious and slow-moving story, that reeked of low-budget TV-production. But it was basically "The Meg Foster Show", as she's the main reason for watching this film.
The relatively unknown actor Joe Roncetti also gave a good performance as a young boy who had a similar bad experience as the girl, but otherwise all the actors were just plain flat and boring.
I'll definitely not watch this movie again (because "YOLO", y'know)
