Silent Rage | Year: 1982 Classification: Action/Adventure Directed: - Michael Miller Interesting change of pace from the usual Chuck Norris film Our story begins with a deranged man under a tremendous amount of stress who finally snaps and axes his landlady. The sheriff and his deputies come and arrest the killer. However, he pulls his cuffs apart with his bare hands and kicks off the door of the police car he's been put into, and ultimatly has to be shot and killed. (And this is before the scientists bring him back to life as an invincible killing machine.) Now it's up to Chuck Norris as the sheriff to find some way to stop him. This is, at least to my knowlege, the only horror film Chuck ever starred in. There is also an overweight deputy who, like most campy hero's sidekicks, provides geeky comic relief. And there is a brief side story involving a biker gang that dosen't really have anything to do with the main genetically enhanced serial killer story, but is in there mainly just so that we get to see Chuck Norris take out an entire gang single handedly, a thing that seems to be a reqirement in Chuck's films. And there is the tacked-on ending where the killer is thrown into the well, but then-surpise-he leaps out of the water, still alive. (This being how the vast majority of 80's horror films end.) Still, the film is entertaining enough in it's own right. A Wild Movie! Chuch Norris as I have never seen him. As the Sheriff of a small town he does battle with an indestructible man. This man started the movie as a mental patient who commits murder at an apartment complex. Theman is gunned down by the police. At the hospital he is made indestructible by doctors(mad scientists).He then proceeds to kill everyone who poses a threat to him. Before he and Chuck meet up Chuck whips a motorcycle gang. At the end of the movie he and Sheriff Chuck wage war all over the countryside. Nothing Chuck does to him will kill him. Sheriff Chuck finally throws him in a well. It ends with the mad killer springing out of the water. My only dissapointment was that there wasn't a sequel. A very exciting movie. A bit different for Chuck Norris though. Nobody does it better than Chuck! Karate master Chuck Norris is at his butt-kicking best here as the sheriff of a small Texas town being menaced by a zombie-like maniac killer who's been brought back from the dead by a mad scientist. This is a pretty good action flick with a nice horror flavor. This DVD has good sound and image quality, but is lacking in bonus features. It has trailers for three other movies, and that's it! But I still recommend it (after all, you can zoom in on those tattoos!) to all Chuck Norris fans, and all martial-arts fans in gemeral.
