The Exterminator: Retribution

A decent acting, a strong storyline, some "rough" violence, sums up what we get in this return of the exterminator.

This one is pretty action-packed right from the jump. The opening shows our protagonista in Colombia taking out a kingpin (references to scarface) Rather than being strictly a revenge/vigilante exploit film though, the character development is enough to really feel the bond between the exterminator and is uncle, and makes it easy to root for Jake as he's blastin' his way through the city.

8.5/10.

If you like Vigilante+Death Wish+Warriors than this is the movie for you, it got that real connection and vibe with the 80´s, starting with the music, and the way he deals with the criminals in the most savage way, you will be pleased.

The principal motivation of Jake (the new exterminator) is to pick up his father´s mask and be the exterminator, but he will have to deal with a new Don a guy called Teschio, this guy is number 1 in Detroit (he doesn´t die in this one, so i´m hopefull that this won´t end here) he´s a good villain, but the men working for him, can´t find Jake, they try but they die.

I had a great time watching this on their channel, so It's time to take out the trash.

7/10.

A tough, adult exploitation film in which violence and retribution are the main themes.

Essentially the story follows the son of the exterminator, in a one man army against crime, i missed these vigilante movies and with this one, it hitted the spot.

The actors do their job well, mainly the exterminator and the crime lord.

Though the film only has one scene of strong gore, the series of deaths are impactful and pretty disturbing.

The film concentrates on the various ways the exterminator kills his enemy´s.

Essential viewing for vigilante fans.

I saw this one on release day on their channel, and somehow i was mesmerized how they pulled it off with a low budget like this, it has that vibe of grindhouse classics and lots of blood, the violence in the late 70's showed more realistic and depressing popular culture, showing the dark side of New York City (full of low lifes, street criminals, drug dealers, drug addicts, underage prostitution, disgusting pedophiles and slimy perverts) So in this first chapter we see him take on a criminal organization led by one mob leader Teschio (D. Dias) so we know it won´t be a easy fight has he struggles with his legacy of the old path done by his father, i liked this backstory wish there was more of it, but that´s not the case here.

The soundtrack is good.

"The Exterminator Retribution" will become a cult classic among the exploitation cinema in time, but like the other flicks from this genre it's not indicated for the general audience...

Director Constantino digs deep in the life of the exterminator´s son, proving that violence is the only way to stop the killings and the siege from the enemy´s that prey on society.

Jake Eastland ins´t a superhuman, just a quiet, reflective man wielding a very, very big flamethrower, in a dark savage world.
