Vigilante film

Common card · No. 232615

The vigilante film is a film genre in which the protagonist or protagonists engage in vigilante behavior, taking the law into their own hands. Vigilante films are usually revenge films in which the legal system fails protagonists, leading them to become vigilantes. While associated with other genres such as crime, western, or adventure, the vigilante film has also often crossed over in recent years with the superhero genre, due to character origin stories frequently involving an injustice having been committed against them.
