After surviving an attempt on his life by his former partner, officer Cliff Garrett (Norris) exacts revenge on those who wronged him by going undercover as a hit man. He works to gain the reputation and trust needed in order to be accepted by the burgeoning Seattle-area criminal underworld, but it is all done in order to take it down from within.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Prime example of 'Canuxploitation'—American stars, Canadian locations, tax shelter funding. Aaron Norris directed nine Chuck films, proving nepotism works when your brother is the roundhouse.
The Seattle setting was entirely Vancouver. Locals will spot the Harbour Centre tower pretending to be American. Chuck reportedly did his own driving stunts until insurance threatened to fire everyone.
