Plot: A surprise hit when it premiered, Walking Tall carried the theme of one man standing up for his sense of right and wrong. Selmer, a small town in southwest Tennessee, served as the authentic background for the bio-pic of the heroic southern Sheriff.

The sequel was filmed using Swedish actor Bo Svensen, and a Final Chapter sequel told of Pusser's demise.
