What happened to Denise?


she just disappeared from the movie.

You mean towards the end of the movie? When the movie got to the final act she was either Brad Wesley's Live in Girlfriend or random bar skank so he kept her away from his home knowing that Dalton was coming for him and his goons.

I recently watched it and thought the same thing about both her and Carrie. Not that I expected them to be in the final fight, but they both just disappear at a certain point.

I was just wondering the same. Carrie kinda disappears after she went on stage with the band (or maybe after Wade saves Dalton at the loading dock; not sure) and Denise after she does the strip tease.

The Jasper War For Empire was kicking into overdrive. Neither Denise or Carrie Ann were combatants. They probably shrunk away from things knowing what was coming. Sort of like civilians clearing out of combat areas when soldiers are moving in.

She had a bigger part in the original cut and ends up leaving the mad guy sending him further down the spiral of hatred. A lot was trimmed down to make it more action based but still keep part of the romance for the ladies.

I know I thought she was at least 29 to 33. must have been the make up or hair that made her look a lot older.

Fun fact Julie Michaels was also in Point Break. She beat the shit out of Keanu Reeves naked during the FBI raid.
