"Shooting The Film is a niche book, but a useful one. For Dolph Lundgren fans, Mulcahy completists, and readers who enjoy the mechanics of production design, cinematography, music, and action atmosphere, Stewart turns an overlooked film into something worth looking at again with more patience and context than it usually receives from casual viewers."

From the director of Highlander and The Shadow, SILENT TRIGGER has all the usual stylistic flourishes by Russell Mulcahy with an added sense of existentialist film noir. Dolph Lundgren plays Waxman, a sniper for a secret government agency, and Gina Bellman as Clegg, his spotter. The movie takes place in and around an unfinished skyscraper called the “Algonquin.” Writer Sergio Altieri wrote a series of three novels called “Sniper” based on his ‘Silent Trigger’ script and character.
Silent Trigger: Shooting The Film goes behind this unique production—the film’s explosive, hard-hitting action set pieces, atmosphere, cinematography, and set design.
