Search: Rolling Thunder, Mad Max, Revenge, Once Upon A Time In The West, The Big Heat, Point Blank, Lethal Weapon 2 (which turns into a revenge film in the last act), High Plains Drifter, RoboCop.
Destroy: Out For A Kill (so bad it's good and then really, really bad again), The Crow, Gangs Of New York.
Rewatched Death Wish for the first time in years and was surprised to find it's not so much a revenge film as about a guy who loses his mind and kills random thugs, never even really attempting to find the gang who perpetrated the crime against his family.
There also seem to be tons of movies where the motivation of the villain is revenge, see Another 48hrs, Die Hard With A Vengeance, High Noon. And then the people investigating revenge killings sub-genre -- Sudden Impact, The Star Chamber.
And of course I Spit On Your Grave has to be mentioned any time this topic comes up. I want revenge against the people who made it ; /
