1979. Drugs are taking over a small California town. An unknown karate killer is slowly picking off a team of undercover narcotics agents. What will the harried police chief & his misfit band of officers do ?

Hire local martial arts champion Matt Logan (CHUCK NORRIS) to teach them how to FIGHT BACK, that's what ! But the drug cartel (and their skateboarding dealers) get more than they bargained for when they kill Logan's adopted son - they soon have to deal with a vengeful FORCE OF ONE !

Teamed up with sexy sidekick Jennifer O'Neill (Scanners), Chuck Norris presents one of his more entertaining '70s flicks, though the PG rating robs any hopes of nudity or extreme violence covering the affair with a sort of tv movie vibe.  Still, director Paul (Deadly Force!!) Aaron keeps things moving and thoughts away from the seeming ineptitude of the police department.
