Biography
Jack Carter is a mobster working for a gang in London, but originally came from North of England. At the start of the film, he travels home to Newcastle after the death of his brother Frank. Jack soon determines that his brother was murdered. He follows an old rival named Eric Paice to the home of crime lord Cyril Kinnear. Jack finds he is surprisingly welcome, but Eric warns him to stay away. Soon, Jack's boss in London sends a couple of men up to make sure that Jack doesn't interfere. Jack soon kills them. Shortly afterwards, he tracks down a businessman named Cliff Brumby, who tells Jack that the car accident which killed Frank was a result of the alcohol being forced down him. Brumby also mentions that Cyril Kinnear is behind it, but Jack still kills Brumby by throwing him off a high story car park. Later, Jack is saved by a young prostitute. While at the prostitute's house, Jack discovers a porn film starring his niece. It turns out that Frank had confronted Kinnear over the film and was murdered as a result. Furious, Jack vows to enact revenge on his brother's murderers. He sends the porn film as evidence to the Scotland Yard Police Force Headquarters. After this, Jack kidnaps Margaret, a prostitute frequently visited by Frank. Jack then blackmails Kinnear into giving him the man responsible for Frank's death. Of course, Jack has already blown the whistle on Kinnear and he is arrested the following morning.
