Another Golan-Globus classic from the 80s... 1985 to be exact. Used to rent this one alot along w/ the original "Missing in Action" from the good ol Dairy Bar in the Passage back in the mid 80s. When we moved to the Valley in the 90s, me and my Dad used to notice that alot of the action flicks from the 80s.. esp those from the Cannon library of films popped up all the time on TBS.. probably because Ted Turner owned MGM which owned alot of Cannon... he also owned WCW but that is besides the point.. the point being the next generation got to see lots of the flicks i saw the decade before.. and now lots of them are preserved on DVD and now Blu-Ray...
But first they were preserved on good ol' VHS...
Good ol Chuck... this generation knows him as the dude who gets lots of facts and jokes made about his super human abilities... another generation knows him as that dude who fought Bruce Lee in the Roman Coliseum and had a shitload of chest hair.. i guess i'll remember Chuck as the dude who along with Sir Charles Bronson whom made Cannon Pictures for a brief time in the 80s as one of the leading, but yet kinda cheap makers of action flicks out of good ol Hollyweird...
Although i must admit... some of those jokes and facts are kinda funny ya know...
Have a good one.. and read on...
