Featuring a post-screening Q&A with 2018 Coolidge After Midnite Award honoree, William Lustig!

New York City factory worker Eddie Marino (Robert Forster, Oscar nominee for Jackie Brown) 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 law. His justice is swift. His methods are violent. He is the Vigilante. 

Fred Williamson (From Dusk Till Dawn), Woody Strode (Spartacus), Joe Spinell (Maniac) and Salsa legend Willie Colon co-star in this hard-hitting exploitation classic from director William Lustig (Maniac Cop, Relentless) that many critics consider to be better — and more shocking — than the original Death Wish.
