What about Death Wish 3, Mark? I saw this the other day, good fun.

Death Wish 1 is my favourite. Then Murphy's Law.

Death Wish 3 is absolutely ridiculous but definitely great fun with it. Easily the best of the sequels.

I had put it Angel but forgot to add the 3 (where I put so bad it's brilliant)That's why Death Wish appeared twice in the list.I have the uncut Dutch disc.

Hard pushed to think of a BAD Bronson film.
Rider on the Rain is a fave of mine and apparently OPTIMUM are gonna do it (finally) justice this year....

Other faves include;
ALL THE DEATH WISH FILMS
MR MAJESTIK
10 TO MIDNIGHT
THE STONE KILLER (Badly needs a dvd release)
ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST
ALL THE CANON Bronson's

Pretty much them all lol....

I see no mentions of Death Wish 4 - The Crackdown! A couple of desks down from me is the guy who used to run Cannon's UK home video operation - I like to remind him of that nightmare rental - there was a sound problem with all the tapes - he still recoils when I mention it to him.

All the DW films are cool-even 5!
The crackdown was another worthy and violent addition,even though by this stage,Charlie was getting way too old for this caper and the stuntmen were becoming more obvious!
