A Prayer For The Dying (1987) - Mickey Rourke DVD

A Prayer For The Dying (1987)

Mickey Rourke (9 1/2 Weeks) gives "his finest performance to date" (L.A. Week) in this hair-trigger action-thriller co-starring Bob Hoskins (Enemy At the Gates), Alan Bates (The Sum of All Fears) and Liam Neeson (Star Wars Episode One). A gritty tale of retribution and redemption, A Prayer For the Dying has "a brisk style and an edgy rhythm" (The New York Times) that will keep your heart racing in suspense until the final frame!

Tormented IRA revolutionary Martin Fallon (Rourke) wants out of the endless cycle of violence and bloodshed. Unfortunately, the price for his freedom is to perform one last murder for a ruthless mobster (Bates). As the vicious world he's trying to escape closes in on him, Fallon's only hope for salvation...may be the man he's been ordered to kill.
