"The Delta Force" (1986) with Gerry D & Chris Adams

Ever wondered what happens when real-life events inspire Hollywood action? Step into 1986, a time when high-octane, patriotic thrillers ruled the big screen. In this 80s action flick, we witness an elite military team led by none other than Chuck Norris and Lee Marvin, taking on a hijacking crisis with rocket-powered bravery and martial arts skill. Based loosely on actual events, this film blended explosive action with a tension-filled storyline that may not have broken box office records, but entertained countless viewers who discovered it on cable and VHS. So assemble the team, get on your rocket-firing motorcycle and don’t miss the plane as Tim Williams and guest co-hosts Chris Adams from "Retro Life 4 You" Podcast and Gerry D from "Totally Rad Christmas" Podcast discuss “The Delta Force” from 1986 on this episode of the 80s Flick Flashback Podcast.Here are some additional behind-the-scenes trivia we were unable to cover on this episode: There were plans to produce a line of Delta Force action figures and vehicles that unfortunately for toy collectors everywhere never made it past the prototype stage. But a board game based on the movie called “The Delta Force: America’s New Heroes” was released in 1986 by Fun Designs.Sources:Wikipedia, IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, BoxOfficeMojohttps://www.bulletproofaction.com/2021/06/15/10-things-you-didnt-know-about-the-delta-force/#google_vignetteSome sections were composed by ChatGPTWe'd love to hear your thoughts on our podcast!
