I watched the Blu-Ray edition and it felt like I was watching some print edited for TV. For that time period and that setting (and that director), I wanted something far grittier than this movie gave me.

Anyone else agree?

Same here, particularly in scenes like the one where the hero fights 3 guys on the basketball court. I expected the violence to be much more graphic that it actually was, considering there were knives involved

Something along the lines of The Exterminator 1 & 2, to name a similar film
