A double-bill of 80s street gang hussle.

In Vigilante, a man leads a group of factory workers to clean up the streets by brutallly beating or killing criminals after a gang's actions affect him personally. In crossing the boundary of traditional law and order, he is forced to reassess his own personal morality and view of society.

In Savage Streets, Linda Blair (child star of the Exorcist) plays Brenda, a girl out to avenge the rape of her younger sister by a gang of teenage thugs - an undertaking that involves weaponry ranging from bear traps to crossbows.
