“Alone against an army of assassins.”
Matt Hunter (Michael Dudikoff), a former intelligence agent and martial arts expert, retired to a quiet life on his Louisiana farm with his young sister and grandfather after his parents were killed by terrorists. His best friend Larry Richards (Steve James), a black senator candidate, becomes the target of a white supremacist secret organization called "The Pentangle." When the group kills Larry's son during an assassination attempt at a Mardi Gras parade, Matt invites his friend to hide at the farm. But the Pentangle attacks the farm too, killing Matt's grandfather and kidnapping his sister Sara. Now Matt has a single purpose: rescue his sister and destroy this ruthless organization alone. Fighting against the Pentangle, who hunts him in a "Most Dangerous Game" style, Matt must use all his past skills and the wilderness itself.
If you miss that unique 'bulletproof tank top' vibe of 80s action cinema, Avenging Force is for you! One of Cannon Films' memorable productions, this movie reunites Michael Dudikoff, the era's biggest action star, with Steve James, known for his unique chemistry in comedy and fight scenes . Did you ever imagine a film could feature both a wild assassination attempt during a Mardi Gras parade and a 'Most Dangerous Game'-style manhunt in the wilderness? This relentless struggle of two friends targeted by a racist organization perfectly captures the fun and gritty atmosphere of 80s B-movies. As critics note, the film's real star is John P. Ryan's unforgettable villain and his band of crazed hunters . Just ignore some of the plot's absurdities, fasten your seatbelt, and enjoy the moment Dudikoff swears his oath of revenge. If you're a fan of the genre's classics, get ready for a trip back in time.
