Error creating thumbnail: File missing Rapid Fire (1992)
Rapid Fire is a 1992 martial arts action film starring Brandon Lee , Powers Boothe , Nick Mancuso , and Tzi Ma , directed by Dwight H. Little (Marked for Death , Murder At 1600 ). This was Brandon Lee's first film as fight choreographer, and his second to last starring role. Brandon Lee was reportedly in talks for a sequel right before his tragic death on the set of The Crow .
Trivia: When Brandon Lee was in Sweden doing promotion for Rapid Fire , he filmed a cameo as a favor to director Richard Holm. This cameo, in the Swedish film Sex, lögner & videovåld (Sex, Lies and Video Violence ), released six years after his death, would be his final screen credit.
The following weapons were used in the film Rapid Fire :
Handguns
Smith & Wesson 39
