1h 29m
Directed by William Lustig • 1982 • United States
Starring Robert Forster, Fred Williamson, Richard Bright
New York City factory worker Eddie Marino (Robert Forster) is a solid citizen and regular guy, until the day a sadistic street gang brutally assaults his wife and murders his child. But when a corrupt judge sets the thugs free, Eddie goes berserk and vows revenge. Now there’s a new breed of marauder loose on the city streets, enforcing his own kind of justice. William Lustig’s hard-hitting grindhouse classic is a bracing plunge into the sleazy depths of 1980s New York City that many cult aficionados consider to be even better and more shocking than the original DEATH WISH.
