A Vietnam War veteran (Stern) has been using illegal drugs, but eventually decides that he wants to escape that life.

Reception [ edit ]
Critical response [ edit ]
Roger Greenspun of The New York Times Clay Pigeon also makes no sense. But its directors, Tom Stern and Lane Slate, have a certain willingness to take each moment as it comes, and its absurdities more often seem the products of a super-active exuberance than of a failed imagination. In its particular field—sex and violence—"Clay Pigeon" just falls short of being very good."[10]
Release [ edit ]
Clay Pigeon was released in theatres in August 1971. The film was released on DVD on April 27, 1999 and later on July 6, 2010 by PolyGram Filmed Entertainment .[11]
