The Delta Force and Delta Force 2, starring Chuck Norris, are getting fresh UK Blu-ray releases. You can read more on them here.

The era of straight to video action films hasn’t been entirely replicated by the streaming world, and the era of modestly-costed action films going to cinema? Well, most of them don’t see the inside of a multiplex.

In the case of The Delta Force, the first film made it to cinemas, but the second went straight to video in the UK. Still, it’s a pair of Chuck Norris headlined action pictures that weren’t short of fans.

The first one, from director Menahem Golan and his once-prominent Cannon empire, also had Lee Marvin, Robert Forster, Robert Vaughn and Shelley Winters in its ensemble. The first sequel, Delta Force 2: The Columbian Connection only carried across Chuck Norris from that cast list, with Aaron Norris stepping behind the camera.
