| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
In the 2006 action hit CRANK, hitman Chev Chelios (Jason Statham)
spent twenty-four hours in over-drive: fighting, killing,
and keeping his adrenaline flowing at full-force to combat
a deadly poison injected into his body. Now, in the high-octane
sequel CRANK HIGH VOLTAGE, Chev has managed to survive—and
is about to face a brand new day.
Picking up immediately where the first movie left off, CRANK
HIGH VOLTAGE finds Chev surviving the climactic plunge to
his most certain death on the streets of Los Angeles, only
to be kidnapped by a mysterious Chinese mobster. Three months
later, Chev wakes up to discover his nearly indestructible
heart has been surgically removed and replaced with a battery-operated
ticker that requires regular jolts of electricity in order
to work.
After a dangerous escape from his captors, Chev is on the
run again, this time from the charismatic Mexican gang boss
El Huron (Clifton Collins, Jr.), and the Chinese Triads, headed
by the dangerous 100 year-old elder Poon Dong (David Carradine).
Once again turning to Doc Miles (Dwight Yoakum) for medical
advice, receiving help from his friend Kaylo’s twin
brother Venus (Efren Ramirez), and re-connecting with his
girlfriend Eve (Amy Smart), who is no longer in the dark about
what he does for a living, Chev is determined to get his real
heart back and wreak vengeance on whoever stole it, embarking
on an electrifying chase through Los Angeles where anything
goes to stay alive.
Lakeshore Entertainment and Lionsgate present CRANK HIGH
VOLTAGE, produced by Tom Rosenberg, Gary Lucchesi, Skip Williamson
and Richard Wright. The film was written and directed by Mark
Neveldine and Brian Taylor, the duo behind the 2006 original.
