Another excellent Lustig movie that would make a great and grimy double feature with Maniac. Fred Williamson bosses the hell out of it and Robert Forster smoulders as the tortured and ultimately vengeful father. Some lovely images and an absolutely corking score make this a must see.

For my money, not enough movies make a plot point of geriatric Woody Strode preventing Robert Forster's impending rape.

This movie was silly as fuck. However, it's the second Lustig movie I've seen this week to feature a naked fight in a shower.

Low budget Death Wish-inspired flick. Robert Forster is a blue collar everyman who wants nothing to do with his pal's (Fred Williamson) vigilante squad until, of course, his own wife is assaulted and his ten year-old son is murdered by a street gang. Too episodic in nature to deliver the punch it obviously wants to; Forster, Williamson and a ton of reliable actors are solid as always, though.

Overall not really all that original (Death Wish did it better) and not that exciting. Only things that give this any merit at all is the casting of Fred Williamson and Robert Forster.

Awesome little revenge pic, with a haunted turn by Robert Forster (Jackie Brown), well worth checking out for exploitation fans.

Take It!

This is also a really good 80s vigilante revenge movie. I actually probably like it more than Death Wish. The soundtrack is hardcore as fuck. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdZPc8ZXnhU

This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Brutal, sad and ultimately amazing. I love William Lustig's "Vigilante", even if at this point in my life I have to scan through some of the gang member-on-family violence. Robert Forrester should have been a bigger star.

Not very interesting for a takin'-the-law-into-their-own-hands exploitation flick.
