Directed by John FlynnMy rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(Encore Drama)
Jan Michael Vincent takes back the streets of a New York neighborhood from a gang. Vincent's style is much in the vein of Bronson: quiet, confident, and the movie resembles Bronson's Death Wish in its theme of personal vengeance. The main problem is the cliched presentation of the gang: the ego maniac leader, the predictable thugs with no personalities. Throw in a romance and you've got more cliches. The film ends with the neighborhood residents taking a stand by raining garbage down on the gang from their windows...subtle it is not.
