Scene of the Week: Invasion U.S.A.
If you ask the average person on the street to name a Christmas action movie, they are most likely going to throw Die Hard at you… some might even say Lethal Weapon. But unless you are an action fanatic, you might not even realize that 1985’s Invasion U.S.A. is a Christmas action movie too.
The Cannon classic tells the tale of Matt Hunter (Chuck Norris) and his one man crusade to thwart a terrorist invasion on U.S. soil… during the holiday season no less! Let’s face it… there is no such thing as a good time for a terrorist invasion, but to invade during the holidays is a dick move or Dick Lynch move in this case, as perennial baddie Richard Lynch plays Rostov the head of the invasion.
This week’s Scene of the Week plays to Chuck Norris’ strength of being a man of few words as Matt Hunter stops some of the terrorists from blowing up a church… a church full of people!
