Wissenswertes
The original score, composed and performed by James Brown & Fred Wesley, has been erased from all current versions of the film in the US. In its place is a poorly constructed temp score featuring source music from other 1973 era American International films such as "Coffy."

Patzer
Although Slaughter fires a machine gun at Duncan from point-blank range, there is no damage to the wall behind him.

Zitate
Slaughter: [Slaughter's girl is wound up about him getting hurt] Now, you gettin' all wired up ain't gonna help nothing... So why don't you go back on outside, and give the customers another look at your pretty face?
Marcia: You know, that's what gets me about you, Slaughter... You're so goddammed cool!
[She storms out]

Alternative Versionen
The 2001 VHS and DVD releases by MGM remove the original score, due to copyright problems, and replaces it with a different soundtrack medley cobbled together from other AIP blaxploitation titles.

A Slight Improvement Over the 1972 Film "Slaughter"

While enjoying a cook out on a ranch with several friends, a bi-plane appears out of nowhere and begins spreading the area with bullets. Although the former Green Berets soldier by the name of "Slaughter" (Jim Brown) is not killed, several of his friends lie dead and dying all around him and he immediately vows to kill those responsible. But first he has to find out who issued the contract on him and why. But before he can initiate an investigation he has to find a safe place for his girlfriend "Marcia" (Gloria Hendry) and somehow get the police off of his back as well. Unfortunately, this process becomes more problematic the closer he gets. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this turned out to be a fairly decent "Blaxploitation" film with good action and solid acting all around. Likewise, the addition of Judith Brown (as "Norja") and the aforementioned Gloria Hendry certainly didn't hurt the scenery in any way either. On the other hand, I have to admit that it loses points on the "realism scale" due to a couple of scenes which defied reality. Even so, I thought that this sequel was a slight improvement over the 1972 film "Slaughter" and I have rated it accordingly. Slightly above average.
