Description

The residents of a dilapidated New York tenement building are being harassed and threatened by Iguana Realty, the dummy corporation which owns the land, in an effort to force them out of their homes. But when karate master Charley’s father is murdered by a group of thugs hired by the landlords, he decides to take matters into his own hands. Enlisting the help of his best friend, fellow fighter Speedy, and driven by a desire for vengeance, they soon develop a plan to murder each board member of Iguana Realty. However, what they don't realize is that their final target is someone much closer to home...

A genre blending grindhouse classic that perfectly embodies the mid 70s, NYC lensed exploitation film aesthetic, Robert Warmflash's DEATH PROMISE oozes sublime 70s sleaze from beginning to end. Starring Charles Bonet (Don't Go in the House) alongside Speedy Leacock, stuntman Thompson Kao Kang (The Black Dragon), and martial arts film legend Tony Liu (Way of the Dragon), Vinegar Syndrome is proud to present the worldwide Blu-ray debut of DEATH PROMISE, newly restored in 2K from its original 35mm camera negative!

    Political grindhouse

    Pure, glorious grindhouse revenge, but what really blew me away is how fiercely committed it is to its radical, pro-tenant politics. Beneath all the wild kung-fu action, cheesy dubbing, and deadly booby traps lies a genuinely angry, uncompromising critique of greedy slumlords devastating working-class NYC neighborhoods.

    Working Class revenge

    Bought this for the tagline Filthy rich landlords get away with murder. It's time to pay for it. This revenge movie is one of my favorite vS movies for the nice revenge of the working class on a rich landlord
