Wanted: Dead or Alive (1987)

Plot: Former C.I.A. operative Nick Randall (Rutger Hauer) is presently a bounty hunter in Los Angeles, California. He chases most wanted guys to get the reward and is saving money for repairing a boat. He intends to retire and travel around the world with his girlfriend Terry (Mel Harris), and his best friend is Detective Danny Quintz (William Russ). After a terrorist attack in a movie theater, Randall is assigned to catch terrorist Malak Al Rahim (Gene Simmons), who has killed more than one hundred forty people. However, the real intention of his disaffection from the C.I.A., John Lipton (Jerry Hardin), is to use Randall as bait to catch Malak. Terry and Danny are murdered by one terrorist, and Randall discovers that Malak's agenda is to blow-up a chemical facility and kill thirty thousand people. But Randall now seeks revenge against Malak.

Alternative Plot: Former CIA agent Nick Randall (Rutger Hauer) now makes his living working as a bounty hunter. After the authorities find out that a criminal mastermind, Malak Al Rahim (Gene Simmons), is responsible for blowing up a number of buildings in downtown Los Angeles, the police department calls Nick in to help. Nick, working with his buddy -- former cop Danny (William Russ) -- and his old partner (Robert Guillaume), signs on for the dangerous mission of bringing Malak down.
