In addition to the fact that this is a non-stop action flick , it Slaughter will please even the hardest fan of the exploitation films.”  “Featuring a dynamic theme song by Billy Preston, "Slaughter" was a major box-office hit in 1972 and one of the most popular films of Jim Brown's screen career; it spawned a sequel, "Slaughter's Big Rip-Off", which appeared in 1973.”  “Just about every tough black actor was given the opportunity to create his own blaxploitation hero in the early 70s. Ron O'Neal had Superfly, Richard Roundtree had Shaft, Fred Williamson had Hammer and Jim Brown had Slaughter. Although the football player turned thespian had a handful of film roles going back to the mid-60s, Slaughter represents his first real starring vehicle. While not critical favorites by any means, "Slaughter" and its sequel "Slaughter’s Big Rip-Off" are action-jammed fun in the typical AIP (American International Pictures) tradition.”  "Slaughter" was released on DVD on January 9, 2001. Subtitles were available in Spanish and French. The DVD was only distributed in the U.S. and Canada by studio MGM (video and DVD). It has a runtime of approximately 90 minutes. It was released on Blu-ray on September 22, 2015 by Olive Films.
