FUBAR Film Review:The Exterminator

Being a Big Super fan of the Punisher people tend to ask me which is my favourite Punisher Movie..is it Dulphs outing as Frank which was shot with ozzy gangsters or maybe the Movie with Tom Janes Frank being the only saving grace to the hole mess or prehaps is Ray Stevensons outting as Castle that fed my hunger for blood with its over the top boring blood letting. My answer is kids its none of these.
The Best Punisher movie in my view isnt even a Punisher flick.

In 1980 grindhouse was still in full swing and the grot mongers were eager to cash in on the Veitnam hype with the likes of deer hunter bringing home the big bucks. Out of an number of godaweful shite came a pretty cool vet-vigilante movie called The Exterminator.

The Movie starts with a bang when some G.Is are captured buy the viet kong and before John Eastland the last member of his unit can chew the wrong side of a machete his Buddy Jefferson turns up with a M-60 and makes charlie into seven types of swiss fucking cheese and pull his buddies ass outta the shit.

So both guys get back home states side and work on the docks together. So when some punks cripple Eastlands buddy he decides to hunt down the scum who fucked up his mate. Then Esterland finds out that Jeffersons boss who is bening strong armed buy the mob wont pay his wife his back pay. So he hunts down that fucker two and makes some use of the dock meatgrinder(do not east taco chips while watching this movie).....and so Esterland deicdes his good at bringing justice to the injust. Pimps.pedos. punks and scum he hunts them all and deals out death via, blades, bullits and fire....he likes fire. Now at this stage your wonder wait this flicks just like death wish. Well trust me it aint...bronson never delt out this much pain and wait till you hear the sub-plot. The paper makes Esterland a hero and name him the Exterminator. Not only do the police freak but the C.I...Fucken....A thinks his a commie agent sent to discredit the American police force and decide to hunt him down.

Robert Ginty is a fucken rockstar in this movie.Hes an ice man and your left wondering is he doing this cause he thinks he's doing the right thing or does he enjoy it. He coins a wicked catchphrease " If your lying...Ill come back for ya" and even makes the world shitest lines sound cool.
Punk : "He was just a N***er!
Easterland: That N***ER WAS MY FRIEND!"
Punk:"Bu-"
Esterlands rifle:BANG
Punks head:POP!
Ginty later went on to do a sequal but it didnt have the same impact as this movie. If I could I have so loved to see him dawn a skull shirt and bomb around in a blacked out van. So whos my  favourite Punisher? Robert Ginty thats who motherfucker and if you dont like it....Ill come back for ya!
