Code of Silence is a 1985 cult action film directed by Andrew Davis and starring Chuck Norris. It was typical for the genre and the star but filmed on location in Chicago with a few sub-plots. It featured Norris as Sgt. Eddie Cusack, a streetwise plainclothes officer who takes down a crime czar / drug lord responsible for officers being wounded in a botched drug raid. In the film's climax Norris teams with a more than menacing crime-fighting robot named "Prowler".

  • Code of Silence is a 1985 cult action film directed by Andrew Davis and starring Chuck Norris. It was typical for the genre and the star but filmed on location in Chicago with a few sub-plots. It featured Norris as Sgt. Eddie Cusack, a streetwise plainclothes officer who takes down a crime czar / drug lord responsible for officers being wounded in a botched drug raid. In the film's climax Norris teams with a more than menacing crime-fighting robot named "Prowler". "Code of Silence" is a slang term for a police officer's cover for one another in circumstances where an officer makes a mistake or is corrupt. This plays a subplot whereby every officer in the station covers up for an aging, alcoholic officer who accidentally shoots a teenage boy then covers up the murder by planting a gun on the victim. Norris's character is the only one to speak out against the corrupt officer and is temporarily ostracized by most of the other officers in his unit.
