Chuck Norris is Lone Wolf McQuade, a renegade Texas lawman short with words but good with a gun and even better with his black belt. But the job becomes personal and all hell is gonna break loose when his daughter is attacked by ruthless arms smugglers leading to the ultimate kung fu showdown with their vicious kingpin (David Carradine). It’s a red-blooded action / western hybrid featuring Peckinpah regulars LQ Jones & RG Armstrong, Barbara Carrera as the bad girl love interest, Penitentiary‘s Leon Isaac Kennedy as FBI and Star Trek: Voyager‘s Robert Beltran as the reluctant partner!
“What Norris was really looking for in all those pictures was the right character. Like Eastwood’s Man With No Name, he needed a personality that would fit, that would contain his kung fu skills and allow him ways of expression not limited to flying fists and deadly elbows. That’s what he’s found in Lone Wolf McQuade. This is an action movie. It makes no apology for that. But it’s high-style action.” – Roger Ebert
