Who here would like to get their mits on Arrow Video's latest Blu-Ray release,
The Exterminator out next monday (the 7th)? Well, look no further....
THE MAN THEY PUSHED TOO FAR.
Notorious at the time of its original 1980 theatrical release for its shockingly real decapitation sequence and other scenes of graphic violence, The Exterminator comes to Blu-ray for the first time in the UK boasting a host of extra features that include an introduction to the film by director by James Glickenhaus (
McBain:
The Protector) and an audio commentary by the film’s producer, Mark Buntzman (
Love Kills;
Exterminator 2). Retaining much of its power to shock to this day, this classic vigilante action-thriller stars Robert Ginty (
Coming Home), Samantha Eggar (
The Astronaut’s Wife;
The Phantom;
The Brood) and Christopher George (
City Of The Living Dead).
John Eastland (Ginty) has been to Vietnam and he’s seen things... things you wouldn’t believe. Having survived a torture ordeal and witnessed the brutal deaths of his friends, he returns home to a tough neighbourhood in New York and his loving family. But when some local thugs take a dislike to his best friend Mike, leaving him paralysed, something snaps in Eastland. Did he fight the Vietcong for this?
Taking the law into his own hands, the former marine sets out to clean the streets of every low-life, good-for-nothing gangbanger, mobster and ghetto ghoul across the city in a savage orgy of vigilante vengeance.
The Exterminator (cert. 18) will be released on Blu-ray (£24.99) by Arrow Video on 7th November 2011.
