Description

America wasn't ready...but HE was!

 

Florida man Matt Hunter (CHUCK NORRIS) is a former CIA Agent who must come out of retirement for one last job when his old nemesis, Soviet terrorist Mikhail Rostov (RICHARD LYNCH) tries to kill him. After unleashing a wave of terror on United States soil, Matt has no choice but to dust off his uzis, don a Canadian tuxedo and become a one-man army to protect his country from dirty communists.

 

One of the first big blockbusters for the infamous Cannon Films studio, INVASION USA is an unapologetic ‘TERRORISTS BAD AMERICA GOOD’ 80s action staple that’s best served with a side of irony. Directed by Joseph Zito (THE PROWLER) and also starring Billy Drago (THE UNTOUCHABLES), this Christmas-set action film is a stark reminder that guns don’t kill people, Chuck Norris kills people.
