Released in 1988, Open Fire is an action and drame film directed by Roger Mende, running about 90 minutes.
What it’s about. A stomach churning potpourri of explosions, gunfire and army trucks ramming through grass and twig huts. The needle in a haystack plot seems to involve our protagonist rescuing his family from some South American drug cartel, or something. At one point Carradine yells those immortal words: "get the hell out of here" through closed lips. The villain of the piece never utters a line of dialogue, preferring instead to stalk about in a cape, squinting cannily beneath beret and drooping mustache (with hawk perched on shoulder for added effect). Avoid at all costs, unless you enjoy beating yourself repeatedly over the head with a flail.
Who’s in it. Open Fire stars David Carradine as Joe Rourke, Henry Yu Yung as Master Ly (as Bruce Ly), Hugo Stiglitz as Don Gaspar and Christine Lunde as Morgan, among others.
How it landed. With an audience score of 4.3/10, Open Fire has proved divisive with audiences.
