Crank
There are a thousand ways to raise your adrenaline. Today, Chev Chelios will need every single one.
Directed by Brian Taylor, Mark Neveldine
Produced by Lakeshore Entertainment, RadicalMedia
A relentless, high-octane action thriller that treats a poisoning countdown as an excuse for sustained mayhem, absurdity, and kinetic spectacle.
Chev Chelios, a hit man wanting to go straight, lets his latest target slip away. Then he awakes the next morning to a phone call that informs him he has been poisoned and has only an hour to live unless he keeps adrenaline coursing through his body while he searches for an antidote.
