Chuck Norris is a legit action hero who first hit the scene in THE WAY OF THE DRAGON where he faced Bruce Lee in one of the most iconic fight scenes in the history or martial arts films. After a string of hit with A FORCE OF ONE, THE OCTAGON and AN EYE FOR AN EYE, he tried his hand at a horror film. In 1981’s SILENT RAGE, Norris plays a familiar role as a sheriff in a small town trying to maintain order as an invincible psycho goes on a rampage.
