Chev Chelios is one angry man. He spent the entirety of the first ""Crank"" film keeping his heart pumping with the use of adrenaline. He had a snowball's chance in Hell of surviving, especially after falling thousands of feet from a helicopter directly onto the pavement, yet he is still alive. Now, in ""Crank: High Voltage,"" that indestructible heart of his is being stolen by Japanese doctors to give to an elderly Chinese gangster (kung-fu legend David Carradine) in poor health. Chelios (Jason Statham) is stuck with a battery-powered heart and needs to give himself a series of electrical jolts to keep the heart pumping. He's like the Energizer Bunny, but angry and British.
