In honor of America’s birthday, we have a special Chuck Norris 4th of July episode for you this time around! If a karate kickin’, beer drinkin’, ex-marine Texas Ranger who drives a Dodge Ram Supercharger while battling gun smugglers and cartel bosses doesn’t scream “AMERICA”, then I don’t know what does! That’s right, we are taking a look at Chuck’s greatest film EVER- ‘Lone Wolf Mcquade’! This 1983 action classic features a modern day cowboy in a film heavily influenced by Spaghetti westerns, who uses guns, grenades, and grade A martial arts to bring down the bad guys! It’s a western! It’s an eastern! It’s American! It’s Italian! And shot entirely in and around the El Paso area in Texas, it’s also got some Mexican influence as well! Like our great country, it’s an amalgamation of multiple cultures all wrapped up into one! Heavily influenced by the style of Sergio Leone, yet maintaining a unique sense of individuality, this film is a must watch for any true action film fan!
