ActionDramaCrimeThriller

The Rebels rule the streets of Gary, Indiana. They shoot storekeeper Marvin Bookman for giving the police information about a drive-by shooting they committed. Marvin’s son, former NFL star and Rebel founder John returns to be with his father and, with a little help from some friends, to destroy the gang his way.

VIBE

A hard-hitting, no-holds-barred revenge flick. Expect raw street justice, intense shootouts, and a palpable sense of gritty determination as old scores are settled with brutal efficiency. This is pure, unadulterated 90s urban action.
