Lone Wolf McQuade

1983 · 107 min

A gritty, macho action ride with a stoic hero, explosive fights, and a touch of campy charm.

Tagline
The 'mad dog' criminal... The 'lone wolf' lawman... The ultimate showdown.
Overview
The archetypical renegade Texas Ranger wages war against a drug kingpin with automatic weapons, his wits and martial arts after a gun battle leaves his partner dead. All of this inevitably culminates in a martial arts showdown between the drug lord and the ranger, and involving the woman they both love.
