 Rating:  - 80s vigilante awesomenessI'm still trying to figure out what all the negative reviews are about when it comes to this 1984 sequel to James Glickenhaus' brutal 'The Exterminator (1980)'. This is not intended to be Citizen Kane, this is a cheesy 80s vigilante flick with grade-Z production values, eerie grainy film quality, a cheap analog synth score, etc. In short, fine entertainment! Seriously though, this is an excellent midnight movie-esque action flick. Best watched at 3am alone in a sleep deprived state. Rating:  - Retread of the original but with less impactThis is less a sequel to the original than a remake of it .Robert Ginty -giving another solid performance -is once again out to clean up the streets of 1980's New York and this time around he arms himself with a flame thrower and operates out of an armoured garbage truck . His special attention is devoted to "X " a street gang leader with delusions of grandeur -he sees himself as an almost Messianic figure ,out to unite the street gangs so as to make them more organised and powerful Read More Rating: - Much better than reputation indicatesThis sequel to "The Exterminator" returns Johnny Eastland (Robert Ginty) to the mean streets of NYC, this time sporting a flame thrower and a welding mask . Eastland and a friend (Frankie Faison, better known to modern audiences as Barney from "The Silence of the Lambs") run afoul of a sinister gang led by a psychotic named "X" ( a surprisingly entertaining Mario Van Peebles), and soon enough Eastland is once again in action on a mission of revenge. Although this is definitely a knock off of ... Read More Rating: - I Am The StreetsWill you people calm down. No this movie is not "Citizen Kane" and sure its a ripoff of the "Death Wish" movies, but so what. You've got a couple of likeable characters, some big time bad guys lead by a young Mario Van Peebles, and you've got flamethrowers and garbage trucks used as weaspons...what more do you want???? Any Golan-Globus movie with butt-kicking and explosions is fine by me. Rating: - BETTER THAN THE ORIGINALThis is your classic D grade trash movie, and a guilty pleasure. This time Ginty's back & after a scummy street gang with the aid of his garbage truck arsenal. Definately better than the first movie, and actually quite fun. Browse for similar items by category:
