Crank: High Voltage
He was dead... but he got better.
Directed by Brian Taylor, Mark Neveldine
Produced by Lionsgate, Lakeshore Entertainment
A gleefully absurdist, hyperkinetic action film that treats graphic violence and surreal body-horror as comedic spectacle rather than consequence.
Chelios faces a Chinese mobster who has stolen his nearly indestructible heart and replaced it with a battery-powered ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity to keep working.
