He’s a skip tracer, the last of the bounty hunters, living on blood money and borrowed time. Isaac Hayes is Truck Turner – a football star turned bounty hunter who’s tracking a sadistic pimp on the mean streets of Los Angeles. But when a tragic accident changes all the rules, suddenly the hunter finds himself being hunted by the city’s deadliest hired killers! Truck strikes back in a series of wild car chases, shootouts, and bone-crushing fistfights, knowing that the battles can lead to only one place: an intense struggle to the death against the brutal leader of L.A.’s crime syndicate, Harvard Blue (Yaphet Kotto).
Featuring an outstanding score by Hayes, a show stopping performance by Nichelle Nichols, and direction by Jonathan Kaplan (OVER THE EDGE), TRUCK TURNER is an explosive force that can’t be stopped!
“One of the best of the ’70s Blaxploitation films … directed with a great deal of style.” Ernest R. Dickerson, director of Juice and Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight
