Trivia

The climactic night fight scene was shot in California in January and was prohibitively cold. Especially for Chuck Norris and Bill Wallace who were both barefoot and bare-chested throughout. The cameras would roll for a couple of minutes and then both actors would cover up and stand by a fire to warm up. See more »

Quotes

Dunne: Oh, shit. Shit, shit!

Dunne: Okay, Harry, what'd ya got?
Dr. Eppis: Well, the bruises were so deep that there was internal hemorrage. And, uh, major tracheal injuries. Obliterating the air passage. In otherwords, uh... something smashed their windpipes, and they strangled in their own blood.

Respectable entertainment.
11 September 2012 | by (The San Francisco Bay Area) – See all my reviews

Like my previous Chuck Norris film review, I also saw this one at a local drive in with a couple of neighbors. I can't remember too much of it, but do remember that it was entertaining in regards to a corrupt police investigation of some kind, something involving drugs, and, of course, martial arts.

It was one of Chucks better flicks, and he showed some chops in the acting department, but I can't say that the film stuck with me all that much. Regardless, it was somewhat impressive. Ironically enough the one thing I remember about going to see this film was the preview for "The Villain", a western spoof.

There's not much in the way of plot in this thing, but it has a decent enough emotional story. If you're into martial arts, and want to see Chuck Norris early in his career, give this film a try. Not a bad watch.

Enjoy.
