I recently saw this movie called Vigilante from 1983...this movie was primarily filmed in Greenpoint and has lots of vintage neighborhood graffiti in it, (mainly the TKC crew). Capitalizing on the Bronson/Deathwish movies this is like a poor man version of Deathwish 1, but is worth the watch if you like seeing old footage of NY/BK in particular. Veteran B movie stars Robert Forster and Fred Williamson keep it moving blasting at fools and administering beatdowns with their boys at a steady pace...These are stills from a scene were Fred Williamson is chasing a drug dealer through the upper decks of the pool in Macarren park. PG comes off right in the middle of the action, even a couple of Deak tags as well.
Classic shit…
PG3 R.I.P.

Nice find… I love seeing movies shot in New York in the 60’s through 80s. It’s like a time capsule for not just the graffiti, but the whole feeling of the place at those times.
