Curiosidades

The Sweeper is a 1996 American action film produced and directed by Joseph Merhi, starring C. Thomas Howell, Ed Lauter, Kristen Dalton, Janet Gunn and Jeff Fahey. Howell plays a cop haunted by the early loss of his father (Fahey), whose unhinged behavior makes him a prime recruit for the vigilante unit assembled by a hardline LAPD veteran (Lauter).

Production

The film was shot in the Los Angeles metropolitan area during parts of July and August 1995. Although getting second billing, Jeff Fahey only makes a short appearance in the film's prologue as the hero's ill-fated father. He took the job as a favor to producer/director Joe Merhi, to whom he had been introduced by his agent, and with whom he was then in talks to produce an ensemble dramatic comedy written by his friend Robert Downey Sr.

According to cinematographer and PM Entertainment regular Ken Blackey, the film marked yet another step up for the company, which aimed to stay current with the new intensity brought to Hollywood by directors such as John Woo. As such, the featured set pieces—all done without CGI—were more complex, such as the propane-fueled night chase and the climax featuring both a massive truck explosion and a mid-air plane fight.
