THE EXECUTIONER: PART II is part of our Vinegar Syndrome Archive collection, celebrating forgotten cinematic oddities from the video store era. This collection was inspired by our own brick & mortar video stores.

Unique to this line, each numbered limited edition release will come fitted in a specially designed, bottom loading VHS inspired slipcase, while also including a double-sided poster.

These releases will ONLY be available on our website and at participating indie retailers. Absolutely no major retailers will be stocking them. This spot gloss slipcase edition is strictly limited to 4,000 units. This release may (but probably not) be followed by a standard edition in the future.

Description

A ruthless gang of thugs is savaging the streets of Hollywood, murdering, robbing, and assaulting the innocent and helpless. As haggard policeman Roger O'Malley does what he can to stem the violence, a mysterious vigilante appears on the scene, attracting significant media coverage after dramatically dubbing himself "The Executioner." Once this crusader hunts down a wayward criminal, he literally blows them up using his stash of grenades. With mounting pressure from the police commissioner to track down the vigilante, O'Malley begins to suspect that the culprit could be Mike, his Vietnam buddy who saved his life during the war, and who is now a local mechanic suffering manic bouts of PTSD.

From the crazed minds of two of 1980s exploitation's most resourceful outsider artists, director James Bryan (Don't Go in the Woods) and writer/actress Renee Harmon (Frozen Scream), comes the jaw-droppingly strange, accidentally surreal, and now, most baffling 4K UHD debut in history: 1984's THE EXECUTIONER: PART II! Starring cult film legend Aldo Ray (Don't Go Near the Park), and Chris Mitchum (Summertime Killer), along with Renee Harmon herself, this non-stop assault of lo-fi action, absurd dubbing, and jaw-dropping stock footage explosions has been newly restored from its original camera negative and returns to home video from VSA. This release also includes the return of Bryan and Harmon's final theatrical feature, HELL RIDERS (1985), starring Adam West (TV's Batman), and Tina Louise (TV's Gilligan's Island), for an '80s grindhouse double feature you'll never forget.

    RENNEE HARMON IS GOLD!

    The movie just rocks, way up there in the bad movie discussion boards. The movie is in another world where no one even talks like human beings. A movie for no one really but us cult fans this is a true gem. I upgraded from the old school dvd and I'm super pleased with this release!
