Avenging Force (1986)

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris hunt down 1986's Avenging Force for its 40th anniversary.

Michael Dudikoff stars as Matt Hunter, a former Secret Service agent who finds himself up against a far-right extremist group known as The Pentangle.  Hunting humans for sport, The Pentangle targets Matt's friend Larry Richards (Steve James), who is running for Senate, and ultimately kidnaps Matt's sister Sarah (Allison Gereighty) to force Matt to participate in one of their hunts.  Zach and Chris discuss whether The Pentangle looked to GI Joe for their hunting outfits, whether this is a younger version of Matt Hunter from Invasion USA, the movie's ruthless killing of main characters, how horrible shooting in the middle of a swamp must have been, and more.

You can watch Avenging Force on Tubi or MGM+.  Next week, with Zach Cregger's version of Resident Evil hitting theaters, we're revisiting the original 2002 movie from Paul WS Anderson.
