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), Richard Bright (THE GODFATHER), Rutanya Alda (AMITYVILLE II: THE POSSESSION), Carol Lynley (THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE), 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 2) that many critics consider to be better - and more shocking - than the original DEATH WISH. Now Blue Underground is thrilled to present VIGILANTE in a pristine new restoration, scanned in 4K 16-bit from the original 35mm camera negative, with Dolby Vision HDR and Dolby Atmos audio, fully loaded with exclusive new and archival Extras!

Press Quotes

A Steady, Well-Made, Nicely-Acted, And Entertaining Movie That's Sure To Leave Audiences Satisfied!

     —Blu-ray.com

Bronson May Have Jumpstarted The Genre With DEATH WISH, But VIGILANTE Is A Much Stronger, More Severe - And Satisfying - Statement!

     —Pop Matters

A Terrific 'Take The Law Into Your Own Hands' Movie!

     —DVD Authority

This Film Will Make City Dwellers Who Feel Harassed By Gangs Stand Up And Cheer!

     —TV Guide

Whenever a major studio puts out a substandard master, there's no longer an excuse. If Blue Underground so masterfully resurrects Vigilante (and numerous others already) on a fraction of the economic backing, then nearly anything can achieve this perfection.

     —Doblu

All of Blue Underground's UHD releases are must-owns for genre fans, and Vigilante is no exception, breathing new life into the film for a further appreciation of it. This release bests all previous home video editions with a stellar A/V presentation and a satisfying extras package. Highly recommended.

     —The Digital Bits

Forceful, brutal, and intense, VIGILANTE is an underrated gem and Blue Underground's Blu-ray is a must have for fans of the film! 4.5 out of 5
