Vengeance is sweet, but deadly

"Four of the five actors given front cover credit on the LETHAL VENGEANCE 4 Movie Pack appear in a single film here ("Exiled").



CONTENTS:



COLLEGE KICKBOXER-- After a martial arts student is attacked by a gang, his friend retaliates and whips them all. The friend trains the college boy in kung fu; the gang then thrashes the teacher, and so on. Film is unintentionally humorous-- good for keg parties, perhaps.



EXILED-- A Central American freedom fighter hiding in the USA is tracked down by counter-revolutionaries, tortured and castrated. He's taken into custody and his wife assumes an alias. She enlists the aid of her employer's son to try and rescue her estranged husband before he is executed. Good cast in a loose adaptation of the play "Sanctuary." (Look for Wings Hauser's brother Erich in a bit part as a trucker.)



LETHAL JUSTICE-- Small town police force deals vigilante justice to any criminals caught committing a violent act.



SCENT OF VENGEANCE-- A Texas oil engineer gets embroiled in a Central American power struggle between the local military and a rebel bank intent on seizing oil fields.





For more heart-pounding action check out DEADLY EXECUTION 4 Movie Pack, also from BCI / Eclipse.



BRENTWOOD's 4-fers are nicely priced movie bundles. Video and sound quality of these digitally unrestored public domain films is generally fine. Discs are dual-side recorded.
