this in my opinion be one of the best action movie of the 1970s . it not only feature a great cast but be also load with wild shootout and explosion that be still impressive today . the story be about a vietnam vet ( kris kristofferson ) be recruit by his brother ( jan michael vincent ) to help clean up the criminal element in a small town and what happen when kris start take advantage of his position and become as bad a the criminal he be hire to get rid of . it great see kris play against type . bernadette peeters and victoria principal both offer great support a the respective lady of the two male star . jan michael show real movie star persona in this film . i do not think vigilante force be on video but it occasionally show up on tv . it a great flick for guy who like movie .
