The movie The Revenger is an action-packed thriller that was released in 1990. It stars Oliver Reed, Frank Zagarino, and Jeff Celentano in lead roles. Directed by Cedric Sundstrom, the movie was well-received by audiences for its fast-paced storyline and gripping action sequences. The movie revolves around the story of a former cop named Harley Thomas (played by Frank Zagarino), who is released from prison after serving a five-year sentence for a crime he did not commit. He is not only out for revenge, but also to clear his name of the charges that sent him to prison in the first place.
Once out of prison, Harley discovers that his former partner Mike Sweeney (played by Jeff Celentano) and his wife Rachel (played by Jenniefer Barlow) were the ones who fabricated the evidence that led to his conviction. The revelation of this information further fuels his desire for revenge.
In his quest for revenge, Harley seeks the help of an infamous criminal named Jack Rapture (played by Oliver Reed). Rapture is not only a criminal mastermind, but also an expert in weaponry and martial arts. He agrees to help Harley in his quest for revenge, but with one condition: Harley must help him retrieve a valuable piece of property from a dangerous criminal named Eddie Cook (played by Doug McClure).
As Harley and Rapture set out to fulfill their individual missions, they face numerous obstacles and challenges. They are ambushed by Cook's men, and Rapture is captured by Cook. Harley, left alone, must figure out a way to rescue Rapture and retrieve the property without getting caught.
Meanwhile, Sweeney realizes that Harley is back and begins to fear for his safety. He hires hitmen to kill Harley, but they are unsuccessful. Harley, on the other hand, is gaining ground in his plans for revenge, and eventually comes face-to-face with Sweeney.
The climax of the movie sees many of the movie's main characters converging in one location for the final showdown. In a thrilling finale, the characters engage in a series of intense action sequences, where there is gunfire, explosions, and hand-to-hand combat. The outcome of the final battle is unpredictable and keeps the audience on the edge of their seats.
Overall, The Revenger is a must-watch for anyone who loves action-packed thrillers. With a gripping storyline, well-choreographed action scenes, and star power from the likes of Oliver Reed, Frank Zagarino, and Jeff Celentano, the movie is a classic of its time.
