I'm honestly unsure if they are simply extreme examples of chaotic good or if they push the limit and enter Knight Templar.. I know that some depictions of Punisher do go beyond chaotic good and he becomes a merciless Knight Templar.. in at least one comic Punisher is said to keep a prisoner in his basement strapped to a machine that slowly tears them apart on a molecular level, only to revive them over and over.. effectively torturing said prisoner for all of eternity..

that is comic exclusive however and a bit out of character even for Punisher, yet it still counts as a thing some writer did.. whether we like it or not..

Punisher in the cinematic universe was far less of a psychopath than his comic counterpart and I'm tempted to say even in his most brutal the film versions were "Chaotic Good".

Dexter I can't say much on as I have never watched that series thus can not judge if he is as bad a Knight Templar figure as comic book Punisher can be.
