Code of Silence (1985)

This week on the Everything Actioncast, Zach and Chris head to Chicago for the Chuck Norris classic Code of Silence, which is celebrating its 40th anniversary.

Norris plays Eddie Cusack, the head of a squad of Chicago cops who finds himself in a gang war when a drug bust goes bad and crime boss Luis Camacho (Henry Silva) wants revenge on the mob.  Cusack also finds himself shunned by his fellow cops when he refuses to back corrupt cop Cragie (Ralph Foody), who kills an unarmed bystander during the drug bust and tries to cover it up.  Zach and Chris discuss how this feels like Chuck's version of Bullitt or The French Connection, how weird it is to hear Ralph Foody speak non-Home Alone dialogue, Dennis Farina's comedic relief, and, oh yeah, the KILLER ROBOT that Chuck uses in the explosive finale.

You can watch Code of Silence on Prime Video and PlutoTV. Next week, we're getting into the gaming state of mind as we head to PAX East by watching Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, which turns 15 later this month.
