Recoil (1998 film)  Recoil is a 1998 action/thriller film written by Richard Preston, Jr., produced by Richard Pepin and Joseph Merhi, directed by Art Camacho and starring Gary Daniels, Gregory A. McKinney, and Robin Curtis. When Los Angeles Police Department officers kill a young bank robber after a brutal bank heist, the slain criminal's father, mob boss Vincent Sloan, unleashes a blood bath on the police force. One by one, Detective Ray Morgan's partners are gunned down, but when his family is murdered, Morgan has nothing left to live for - except revenge. Becoming an unstoppable one man army, Morgan goes on the ultimate hunt for justice. At the end, Morgan gets his revenge. He kills Sloan with an exploding barrel. The final scene is a sunset over LA, which slowly zooms in to a now elderly Morgan who looks despondent and is perched precariously with one foot on either side of an apartment balcony. Moments later, we've zoomed all the way to an ultra close up of a tear navigating its way down Morgan's heavily wrinkled face when the camera suddenly zooms out and Morgan jumps to his certain death as the screen fades to black and the credits begin.
