Revenge for a Rape (1976 TV Movie)
An outstanding TV movie

Warning: Spoilers
I totally agree with the other comment. I was stuck to my seat while viewing this little TV material masterpiece. The story begins as many others but the following is absolutely unusual.

A man and his young pregnant wife are on vacation in the wilderness, near a little town where big hunts are organized, and the woman is raped by three men. Afterwards, of course, the baby is dead and the husband - Connors - gets on rampage for vengeance. And that's here where the story begins very interesting.

He begins to track them down in the perfect survival style - you think of course of DELEVERANCE - and you realize in the same time that he tracks and kill the WRONG MEN. Because the editing of this story shows us that his wife recognizes, after her release from the hospital, the three men who raped her. So, you, the audience, you see the avenger wipe three innocent people. That's very unusual.

In other story, you would have realized that ONLY at the end of the film, at the same time as the lead. Not WHILE he wastes them.

The very exquisite would have been to end the movie with Connors not knowing at all he killed the wrong persons...

Get it at all cost.
