A Tennessee gambler (Joe Don Baker) who also runs a bar accidentally kills a sheriff in an act of self defence and is sent to prison for a long stretch. When he is eventually released early on parole he realises that he was set up and goes after those responsible to exact his revenge.
A very 1970s violent neo-noir small thriller with many violent set pieces. It was made by the team and lead actor who had made WALKING TALL in 1973. Director Phil Karlson was a veteran of tough hardboiled crime, gangster and action films and was allowed to go full force here.
