Crank 2: High Voltage
In Mark Neveldine and Brian Taylor's 2006 action-thriller, Jason Statham played a hitman who combated a deadly and powerful toxin injected into his system by maximising the amount of adrenaline already in there.
For the sequel, he reprises his role as bruiser Chev Chelios in a storyline that continues directly after the explosive exploits of the original Crank. Chev wakes to discover that an enigmatic Chinese mobster has ripped out his heart and replaced the vital organ with a battery-operated ticker that will stop unless he gives himself regular jolts of electricity. Aided by kindly Doc Miles (Dwight Yoakum) and his girlfriend Eve (Amy Smart), who now knows exactly what he does for a living, Chev intends to retrieve his heart while outwitting Mexican crime lord El Huron (Clifton Collins Jr) and Triad elder Poon Dong (David Carradine). To survive on the mean streets of Los Angeles, Chev must constantly tap into the city's power supply but he must be careful not to zap himself for too long or he runs the risk of blowing up his new heart.
