How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A raw, propulsive revenge thriller where a traumatized Vietnam veteran takes justice into his own hands against a motorcycle gang that has destroyed his family. This is lean, mean exploitation cinema, full of firepower and fury, asking how much violence a man can endure before he becomes it.
