James Glickenhaus Cult Classic "The Exterminator" Hits Blu-Ray for the Very First Time

Synapse Films recently send us information that they're going to release the cult classic "The Exterminator" on Blu-Ray for the very first time. The Blu-Ray / DVD combo set starring Christopher George, Robert Ginty, and Samantha Eggar is being presented in a more violent director's cut. The film is set to his Blu-ray shelves on September 13th.

Press Release:

Christopher George, Robert Ginty, and Samantha Eggar star in THE EXTERMINATOR, James Glickenhaus' explosive story of Vietnam vet John Eastland (Ginty), a man who launches a bloody vendetta against the New York underworld when his best friend is brutally beaten by a vicious street gang. Eastland becomes a vigilante hero to the public, but to police The Exterminator is a psychopath capable of dangerously undermining an entire government administration.

Synapse Films is proud to present THE EXTERMINATOR in its more violent and gory Director’s Cut, lovingly restored in high-definition from original vault materials. One of the most cold-blooded and controversial revenge films ever made, this is “a sick example of the almost unbelievable descent into gruesome savagery in American movies.” (Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times)
