Trivia:
The ratings board threatened the original cut of the film with an X rating, so it had to be cut down. The rape scene and table saw-death scene in particular had to be edited for an R rating. more
Goofs:
Continuity: In the scene where Stegman and his gang go to the punk band club, the punk band Teenage Head are playing. The song that the band is playing is called "Got No Sense". Before Stegman gets on stage to stage dive, he gives a two fingered gesture to the crowd. The singer of the band onstage is next to Stegman singing the song, but his lips are not matching to the words of the song being played by the band. more
Quotes:
Deneen: You jerks don't belong here.
Peter Stegman: Shut your hole, you little dyke!

An absorbing piece of exploitation., 21 December 2001
6/10
Author: gridoon

"Death Wish" meets "The Blackboard Jungle" in this brutal, increasingly violent thriller. If I were to judge it from a strictly objective point of view, I'd have to be very negative - it's a totally exploitative piece of work. But there is something inherently absorbing about this movie, and you simply can't take your eyes off it. Its 93 minutes pass like a breeze, and for that alone it probably deserves two stars. Has pretty good acting, too.
