Trivia

Brian Libby's performance as the murderous psychopath John Kirby is almost entirely mute bar for when he "mumbles a sentence or two early on in the movie" as The New York Times put it. See more »

Goofs

When Dr. Vaughan tries to kill John Kirby by injecting him with sulfuric acid, he draws the acid into a standard plastic syringe. In real life the acid would very quickly destroy the plastic, rubber and steel components of the syringe. See more »

Charlie: Billy, they were the biggest things I ever saw and they had tattoos on them. You know, I may be in love. I might just go right back in there and ask her out on a date. (Biker flies out of the bar through the door) Mayday! billy, send backup! all units report to the old blues bar, over!

Better than most of the slashers from that time
6 March 2004 | by (OH.) – See all my reviews

I remember watching "Silent Rage" along time ago when I was very young, and I could barely sit through the whole film because of the suspense. I would get up and walk into another room, then come back to check out what was going on. It was quite intense for a young kid. I can certainly sit through the whole thing now, without trouble, but the movie is still suspenseful. And, like my one line summary says, this movie creates and maintains suspense better than a lot of the slasher movies that were being made back the the early '80s.

This isn't a well known movie, but it's really one of Norris' best that he's been in. 8/10
