Review of Death Wish II (1982) by Troy F — 18 May 2012
Establishing the plot points of every Death Wish movie to come, it seems a mistake to so wholeheartedly repeat the first movies elements. However the movie does deliver and certainly ups the emotional connection between crime and victim.
The fantasy fulfillment of revenge takes a more modern approach with the actual perpetrators begin the targets this time (a choice the original made a brave choice to avoid) and once again Winner & Bronson carve out a piece of movie genre history much aped in decades to come.
