A few naysayers in the Empire forums have suggested that we not call Jason Statham "The Stath", and that our enthusiasm for the bonkers Crank: High Voltage might be misplaced. But seriously, folks, take a look at this new poster and think again: it's clearly going to be awesomely over the top.
This sequel of course sees the Stath's Chev Chelios wake up following his apparent death at the end of the first film to find his indestructible heart being removed by organ harvesters. They replace it with an electric model to keep him going while they cut out the rest of his superior innards. Unfortunately for them, Chelios has other ideas and goes hunting his heart - while giving himself regular electric shocks to keep his dicky replacement ticker running. Hence this poster. Ouch.
