THE CHASERS



(Tom Berenger)

Tom Berenger, William McNamara and Erika Eleniak can be seen in the action comedy Chasers directed in 1994 by Dennis Hopper on the M-Net Movies Smile DStv Channel 105 on July 4 at 21h54

Dennis Hopper became a Hollywood icon on the strength of a single performance: as Billy in the cult classic Easy Rider, his directorial debut. This is what a leading critic had to say: "No one better signifies the lost idealism of the 1960s than Dennis Hopper." Chaser is the last film he directed.

A day before his discharge from the navy is due, a young sailor is given a final task: to escort a prisoner – who happens to be a gorgeous blonde – in transit. Will he be able to resist her trickery and beauty and complete the assignment? Rating: 18SN
