Blood Debts

While enjoying a picnic, Sarah Collins (Catherine Miles) and her boyfriend are surprised by a gang of five juvenile hunters. They gang rape her and kill him, but just before they are about to kill her she escapes and runs to her parents' house. The gang members shoot Sarah in front of her father, a wealthy Vietnam vet (Richard Harrison) named Mark. The boys wound him seriously and leave.

A few months later, after his health has returned, Mark manages to find the murderers and kills each one of them. He also keeps on walking the streets at night, looking for criminals in action to execute until his wife Yvette (Ann Jackson) convinces him to stop. However, he has been observed by the henchmen of Bill (Mike Monty), an enigmatic businessman desiring to crush the local drug syndicate. Bill gives orders to kidnap Yvette and forces Mark to continue his vigilante work.

Mark eventually escapes and stages a one-man assault on Bill's compound, pilfering progressively larger weapons from the henchmen he kills. However, Bill emerges with a pistol and shoots Mark in the back. As Bill prepares to shoot him again, Mark pulls out a tiny rocket launcher concealed in his sleeve and fires off a last-ditch shot, blowing up Bill. The film ends with a freeze frame of the explosion and text informing the audience that "mark collins, age 45, gave himself up to the authorities after the incident. he is now serving a life sentence. [sic]”

The film ends very abruptly, with the credits rolling before the rocket explosion finishes or Bill's body parts hit the ground, with both actors substituted with obvious and crude stunt mannequins. Simultaneously, upbeat stock music is played over the scene and the credits, contrasting with the sour tone of the on-screen text describing Mark's fate. This ending has been uploaded several times on YouTube, usually with sarcastic titles to the effect of "The Proper Way to End Your Film"; the most popular upload on YouTube has over 9 million views.[1]
