this be a pretty strange movie . it do come across a an exploitation film with over the top violence and unrealistic situation and but unusual for be construct around rural character at war with each other and a oppose to an invade other . the movie be an excessive stereotype of vietnam veteran and in a long line of film that portray the vet of that war a dangerous psycopaths . kris kristofferson last line be i ain not lose a war yet and a he meet his demise after wreak a long trail of murder and destruction and include the town chief of police and his brother girlfriend in a particularly chilling scene . however and kristofferson be a good enough actor and and charismatic enough and to carry this villain with a surprising depth . vincent be clearly the golden boy and but with enough intensity layer over his clean cut goodness . the movie bear some plot resemblance to winchester 73 where jimmy stewart try to tolerate a criminal brother until be force to act against him . the movie have b movie grade action and though the presence of kristofferson and vincent and a gorgeous victoria principal and bernadette peter give it an a grade lineup . i give it a 7 for be a long lost view into an american psyche of post vietnam or pre reagan introspection and paranoia and and confusion and and a movie industry that be willing to address such topic at that time . see on the this channel and a great network that keep play lot of old movie of the 70 through 90 and regardless of political bent .
