SPECIAL EDITION * UNRATED DIRECTOR'S CUT

THE WINNER IN THE 1980S SWEDISH VIDEO STORES WITH THREE MONTHS AT 1ST ON THE TOP LIST!

During the heyday of the video era, there were two action films in particular that stood out in Sweden – The Octagon with Chuck Norris and The Exterminator directed by James Glickenhaus. What they had in common was that they were much more violent than we were used to, were banned from showing in cinemas by censorship, and were huge successes on video.

Robert Ginty plays Vietnam veteran John Eastland. After his closest friend from the war is beaten so badly that he is paralyzed for life, John sets out to kill the guilty gang. After which he also takes on all the other scum in the city – equipped with a machine gun, flamethrower and meat grinder…

THE EXTERMINATOR is now being released for the very first time on Blu-ray in Sweden, complete with the infamous and incredibly realistic beheading, created by make-up genius Stan Winston (four-time Oscar winner for films such as Aliens and T2).
