The Hero And The Terror is an action/ thriller with horror movie atmosphere and some slasher elements. This is taken pretty seriously and has some of Chuck Norris's best acting. Although he is a double tough cop that does not have to call for backup, he is much more of a normal guy than the type of characters Chuck Norris normally portrays on screen. In this role he shows some vulnerability and is kind and gentle with his girlfriend and mother to be. He also has his fears and nightmares of a serial killer he apprehended. The same killer has escaped and he must face these fears again. I do like my share of movies where Chuck plays a one man army and yes, The Missing In Action series is awesome. But I can appreciate this as well, as an attempt to focus more on acting than action. However, there is still plenty of action here as well, so it should not disappoint most of Chuck's normal viewers.
