Sudden Impact

1983

"Dirty" Harry Callahan (Clint Eastwood) is back for the fourth time as a San Francisco police detective who refuses to take a break from law enforcement after being forced on vacation by his superiors. Now, he's determined to stop a serial killer on the loose, as gang-rape victim Jennifer Spencer (Sondra Locke) seeks revenge by murdering each of her attackers. Eastwood also directs this gritty film that spawned the line "Go ahead. Make my day."

Two killers are at large. One of them is Dirty Harry. [Video]
