neutral · AI labelView post →i am actually fascinated by this movie? it delivers the same kind of thrills and satisfaction — and serves the same cultural and emotional purpose — as a film like DEATH WISH or DIRTY HARRY or JOE, except directed at financial villains and fraudsters.
positive · AI labelView post →i’m watching the DEATH WISH movies and i have to wonder if paul kersey is the most unlucky character in the history of american cinema. i’d like to write a direct sequel to DEATH WISH 5 that reveals that kersey was killed in the first movie is being tormented in hell

neutral · AI labelView post →I'm watching the first Death Wish again and remember when movie stars were allowed to look like Charles Bronson? That's the peak physical form. Mustache. Incomprehensible accent. Can look ripped or doughy depending on the lighting. It is illegal to make them like that anymore.
positive · AI labelView post →Calm down, dear! It's only a Judge Dredd '77 commission inspired by the original movie poster for Michael Winner's "Death Wish" !
neutral · AI labelView post →I like Saejima’s sobbing rant about how scary it is to murder someone, because it reminds me of the first Death Wish movie where Charles Bronson murders his first goon and then immediately throws up in the bushes
neutral · AI labelView post →A friend just sent me these photos from a 2014 introduction lecture I did on my book about rape-revenge films for a screening of Death Wish at Melbourne's Cinemaniacs film collective - wild to remember what I looked like before perimenopause turned me into Marjory the Trash Heap from Fraggle Rock!

neutral · AI labelView post →Born 3 Nov 1921, actor Charles Bronson had a tough-guy on screen persona & is best known for many action & vigilante movies. The Magnificent 7, The Great Escape, The Dirty Dozen & Hard Times are some of his notable films. Death Wish was his most popular film & it led to 4 sequels. #CharlesBronson

neutral · AI labelView post →people who believe American cities are terrifying hellscapes full of leering extras from a Death Wish movie deserve to be publicly shamed without mercy or restraint
neutral · AI labelView post →Death Wish (1972) by Brian Garfield was adapted to film in 1974 & 2018. The '74 film is more respected as it changes a great deal. The book's troubled sociopath is made into a tough guy bent upon revenge. The anti-violence is turned into an action film with a heroic vigilante. 🔫👉💀 #filmsky #booksky
neutral · AI labelView post →I saw Sisu: Road to Revenge last weekend and it may have been even better than the original. It’s an ultra violent revenge movie reminiscent of recent franchises like John Wick and Nobody or classics like Charles Bronson’s Death Wish. The twist? It’s during World War 2. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ out of ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

neutral · AI labelView post →I feel like "right wing TV" is just "every cop show ever". ROCKY IV is the most right wing culture war movie ever filmed, Sly wins the Cold War through pure testosterone. Every installment of DEATH WISH is just pure suburban white rage.
negative · AI labelView post →death wish 3 has some of truly most insane choices in a movie, also equally insane that JEFF GOLDBLUM (yes that one) first appeared on the big screen in Death Wish 1
neutral · AI labelView post →Judgment Night is on and it's a movie where 4 upper middle class guys take an exit 3 miles from the Sears Tower on a Tuesday Night and get lost and it's like they fell into a Death Wish sequel
neutral · AI labelView post →PERSON OF THE DAY. 30 August 2003. Charles Bronson died (aged 81). He was the archetypal screen acting tough guy with one film critic describing him as “a Clark Gable who had been left out in the sun too long”. He starred in the Death Wish series of films and many other classic movies.
neutral · AI labelView post →The Wonder Man series was good. Or at least I thought it was. The new Punisher short film is like a level of bad that I haven't seen since Death Wish 4.

neutral · AI labelView post →Upgrade is great, because it understands that the whole subgenre of "dude returns to a life of violence to avenge those who ruined his idyllic life" (e.g. Death Wish, Walking Tall, John Wick) is basically a slasher movie where the slasher is the protagonist
neutral · AI labelView post →This week marks the 52nd anniversary of ”Death Wish” (July 24 1974) a film about an architect named Paul living in New York City who, in an effort to avenge the murder of his wife Joanna and daughter Carol and make up for local police inaction, becomes a one-man vigilante squad.
neutral · AI labelView post →Picking a random film from my collection to show off for no real reason! Year 2, Day #86 "Death Wish 3" (Michael Winner/1985) Just fucking awesome. The most unhinged Death Wish movie ever, you need to check this one out!

neutral · AI labelView post →I've never seen a Death Wish movie; I've only seen him in Westerns, but I am required to point out that Charles Bronson is our Tatar-American movie star. Рəхмəт.
neutral · AI labelView post →I said it before and I'll say it again. We are in the Death Wish era of film again. Boomers and Gen X (which I'm in) want to feel like we still got it, so we're getting a lot of high profile movies featuring older actors beating the brakes off the young 'uns.
neutral · AI labelView post →this is the cultural change @mtsw.bsky.social was talking about. in 70s this would be a Death Wish esque movie about street crime

neutral · AI labelView post →Unintentionally: pretty much every Death Wish style movie in the 70s, maybe But if we're looking for a specific depiction including the nihilistic youth, probably something in the 1980s but accidentally, done as a DARE anti-weed PSA or something
neutral · AI labelView post →📽️ Does anyone else find it fascinating when the sequel to a good movie is so, so, so bad My personal high marks for biggest gulf in quality: Death Wish / Death Wish II Funny Girl / Funny Lady The Exorcist / Exorcist II: The Heretic Might as well controversially throw in Jaws / Jaws 2
neutral · AI labelView post →Nothing in life will be greater than when my stepdad put on a DVD he burned of “The Love Guru” but some kind of encoding error had randomly intercut that movie with scenes from Charles Bronson’s “Death Wish”.

neutral · AI labelView post →#watched NIGHT OF THE EXECUTIONER (1999) Paul Naschy plays a doctor who goes DEATH WISH on a gang of thugs after they (you know) his wife and daughter. Far from Naschy's best, and very dated looking even in 1999, but I admire him for going hard even at age 65.
neutral · AI labelView post →This film is fucking amazing, it's basically Death Wish with whales. Or, as my dear friend Martin Kingsley once called it, "Death Fish".

negative · AI labelView post →Just Watched / First Watch Ms .45 (1981) Great Exploitation Vengeance flick. I really enjoyed it. I saw someone call it Repulsion meets Death Wish, and that about sums it up. I may be wrong, but I think this is the favorite movie of @sauzapaul.bsky.social
