Good movie but grossly overrated
Boring
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Before action icons Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jean Claude Van Damme and Steven Seagal tore up the screen there was Chuck Norris. Silent Rage is a 1982 action/science fiction/horror movie starring Chuck Norris, Ron Silver and William Finley. Dan Stevens (Norris) is the sheriff of a small Texas town who checks out a disturbance which turns to murder.The killer attempts to flee, but is shot and killed and is taken to a medical institute. Three doctors operate on the mystery figure and bring him back to life using a formula that they have concocted. The resurrected man is seemingly indestructible and it's up to Sheriff Dan Stevens to try and stop him Silent Rage is quite a violent 80's action film with some good fighting scenes. Actually there are only 2 or 3 fight scenes but they are quite good."Whatever quibbles I have with Silent Rage, there is no denying that this is one entertaining flick. How many slasher movies feature Chuck Norris Kung Fuing his way through, fighting with some Wolverine healing lunatic.. You don't see that stuff every day, folks." Harry Lags, Overall 8 out of 10
A weird movie for Norris . A slasher with a little bit of science fiction. I guess he wanted to do something different , but it is just as bad as most of his movies.GOOD : There is nice fight in bar . Some pretty girls . Oh and Chuck talks to a cute dog.BAD : The story is predictable and stupid . The action is poor and the pacing is dreadful. The ending is lame and obviously a setup for sequel. Thankfully that never became reality.VERDICT : It's simply not worth watching . If you're interested in a movie where humans fight against seemingly indestructible villain better watch "Terminator". I give it 1/10.
At a little town from Texas a tough sheriff (Chuck Norris) and his helper(Stephen Furst) pit a dangerous killer series with a supernatural force. The monstrous man is a Frankestion-alike creation from scientific (Steven Keats, William Finley, Ron Silver) and acting similarly to Jason Vorhees and Michael Myers.This Chuck Norris vehicle contains action-packed, thrills, chills and lots of blood and violence. The comic relief at charge of Stephen Furst as silly and botcher police saying stupid things , furthermore imitating Taxi Driver's Robert De Niro. Chuck Norris demonstrates his qualities as action hero on a fights against some nasty punkies into a saloon by means of punches, kicks , bounds and leaps. Peter Bernstein's screeching musical score is made by synthesizer . The motion picture is regularly directed by Michael Miller. This is an inferior Norris film in spite of it he was on his best period with his hits such as ¨The Octagon, An eye for an eye, Forced vengeance, Lone Wolf MacQuade, and Missing in action¨ among others. Rating : Average but entertaining. The picture will appeal to Chuck Norris fans.
SILENT RAGE (1982) Rated R An ugly creepy ax murderer gets blown away by cops, yet later on a slab at the clinic, he gets healed by three scientists' genetic formula experiment. In a secret test, they argue over the ethics of trying it on a human.Figuring the autopsy is over, the Sheriff stops by and he wants the body - but the top scientist delays that ! because the dude is alive again, and loose on a non-stop killing spree.Shot or stabbed, his wounds heal in seconds, and he's baaaaack.It is creepy as *beep* as he stalks victims. At the hospital, in homes, and elsewhere....Chuck Norris plays the Sheriff.Ron Silver plays a psychiatrist doctor.Stephen Furst is the big lovable goofy Deputy.Plus it has sleazy Biker Babes baring boobs.A 9/10 Rating for wicked thriller/slasher/action.
