Plot
We have another exploitation rip-off here and it's called The Executioner 2. I tried to find the first Executioner movie but that ended with failure. Why? Because this was made to cash-in on Exterminator 2! That means it is NOT even a sequel to any other movie. Well, that's a bad sign right there. The last "fake sequel" movie I watched was Leonard Part 6 (which deserves the bad reputation it gets) and I loved the original The Exterminator so I had no idea what this movie would be like going in. Judging from the poster it looked like another Italian post-apocalypse action film. There's cool images of airplanes, helicopters and explosions on there. Sadly, besides the opening scenes, none of these things happen at all. The first five minutes is a flashback to the Vietnam war...MORE
