Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe film was originally slated to be a science fiction film, but complications in production forced it to be scrapped and Dardano Sacchetti was commissioned to write a new script. Since the film had already been announced (and was being sold) under the title "BlastFighter", it was kept the same.
- GoofsTires don't squeal "JUST" because of braking. Tires also squeal from a loss of grip on a paved road. So the above mentioned goof is only a partial goof, especially since tires squealing on dirt or gravel roads is one of the most overdone "goofs" of movies & TV shows made during this period.
- Quotes
Jake 'Tiger' Sharp: YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO I AM? I'M A SON OF A BITCH... who wants to be left alone.
- Crazy creditsFootage contained in this film which depicts animals suffering was archive documentary footage and was not instigated by the production company.
- Alternate versionsItalian DVD release (which is full uncut but with Italian audio and subtitles ONLY!) has quite a few more intense and violent scenes than the Finnish videotape (English audio) that possibly are not censorship cuts but version differences. The rape scene and the beating of the cop in the woods is more intense. Also the "exploding arm" - and "the throatcut" - scenes are not present in the Finnish videotape. There's also some differences in some of the dialogue scenes, like the ending - in the Italian print Eastman and Sopkiw don't say anything to each other while in the english language print they change a few words.

Featured review
Whoever said Lamberto Bava sucked?
They obviously ain't seen BLASTFIGHTER then cuz this is one kick ass flick we got here! Made the same year as his equally lightning-paced film DEMONS, and featuring the exact same Claudio Simonetti score used in MASSACRE IN DINOSAUR VALLEY (a film I highly recommend BTW), Blastfighter is a hot little piece of celluloid. Genre favorite Michael Sopkiw (AFTER THE FALL OF NEW YORK) is here as the hero who seeks revenge on the redneck bullies who killed his daughter and ruined his life. Also, Joe D'Amato reg George Eastman co-stars doin' what he does best: playing a bad guy. Here, he actually has speaking lines! There's lots of action, a good storyline with a fair amount of suspense and drama, and of course loads of gory violence toward the end. Now, after seeing this, is L. Bava really as bad as most say? I think not. You might be very well surprised.
