Synopsis
A Vigilante in the City (1974)
When he learns of the death of his wife, beaten to death, and the rape of his daughter, traumatized for life, the architect Paul Kersey contains his pain, his anger. If he first takes refuge in work, the gun offered to him by a Texan client decides his fate. Armed, more and more sure of his gestures, Kersey wanders at night in the most disreputable neighborhoods of New York, shooting down all those who pose a threat to him and to society...

Five years after cleaning the streets of New York from its less frequent fauna, Paul Kersey leads a peaceful existence in Los Angeles, with a new companion, a journalist. But, again, fate hits him hard. Abducted and raped by a gang of thugs, her daughter commits suicide. Overwhelmed, he finds his attackers one by one and, in cold blood, applies the supreme punishment to them.

Determined to settle down, Paul Kersey arrives in New York to visit his friend Charley. But the reunion is short-lived: Kersey arrives just in time to collect the last words of Charley, attacked by thugs. Arrested by the police, Kersey has no difficulty in identifying himself but heavy presumptions of guilt continue to weigh on him. Once released, Kersey agrees to help the police clear the neighborhood of delinquents, gangsters, and drug addicts.
