Buster McHenry works as an undercover agent for the local police. Currently he investigates on police corruption and is in big trouble. His task makes him break the law, he participates in a robbery. Things really screw up as not only two men are shot, but also an ancient indian spear is stolen and Buster is wounded. Hank Storm, a young indian, is now after the spear and Buster is after his criminal 'comrades'. Both of them are outsiders in their way, but now they have the same target. Written by Oliver Heidelbach

RENEGADES was the victim of UNIVERSAL which released it around the time of INDIANA JONES AND THE LAST CRUSADE which was box office suicide. The film should have been out in early spring or late fall. This particular film is still poular in syndication on cable and other tv stations. The film is a mixture of police corruption, mobsterism, and native american folklore. The film sports some familar elements yet, many good mainstream movies do. The positioning of this film opposite the paramount pictures RAIDERS sequel hurt the box office of this film in 1989. However, it did well on video and in syndicated tv release. (still does) RENEGADES was a movie which was released with little advetising or fanfare and is a relatively entertaining crime picture. Not the godfather by any stretch then film revolves around a cop named BUSTER who tries to crack a case involving a corrupt cop who works for the mob. Things get complicated when the brother of a native american civilian is killed and a sacred lakota spear stolen by mob heavies following a heist. The brother of the man played by LOU DIAMOND PHILLIPS teams up with the cop played by SUTHERLAND in order to stop a mutual problem.
