The Exterminator (1980)

In the grimy streets of New York City, a bond of friendship is brutally severed. John Eastland, played by Robert Ginty, is a man haunted by the tragic fate of his best friend, Michael Jefferson. When Jefferson, the man who saved Eastland's life in the savage jungles of Vietnam, is left crippled after a ruthless mugging, Eastland's world is shattered. Consumed by fury, he decides to take justice into his own hands, dusting off his old Army gear and embracing the mantle of "The Exterminator". With a heart seething with revenge, Eastland embarks on a one-man crusade, transforming New York City into his personal battleground. His mission: to cleanse the city of the criminal vermin that left his friend broken. As he descends into a violent frenzy, the city trembles under the weight of his wrath. Amidst this chaos, only one man, Christopher George, dares to stand against the tide of Eastland's rage. "The Exterminator" is not just a tale of vengeance—it's a gritty exploration of friendship and justice, set against the backdrop of a city under siege. As Eastland wages his war, viewers are left on the edge of their seats, wondering who will emerge victorious from this thrilling urban battlefield.
