Oh, and the third one is enjoyable in a really stupid way.

If people can't laugh at the sheer banality of DW2 they've lost their sense of humour!

The dialogue is howlingly bad.

The rape scene in DW2 was just atrocious and completely OTT. It'll be a long time before this sees the full light of day in the UK.

Caboblanco and the melon-farming Mr Majestyk stretched things a bit though.

Can't beat a shotgun-toting melon farmer Vince.
Just watched COLD SWEAT-James Mason was hilarious!

One of the longest death scenes in history.

The screenings that ITV are currently showing (think they're up to DW3) have surprised me. Nice, crisp prints mastered to 16:9. I recorded Death Wish but only checked on DW2 to see the print quality - it was cut to ribbons, of course!

I Spit On Your Grave will probably pass uncut before DW2.

"DW 2" may not be serous cinema and Bronson is an emotional void...but as an exploitation film, in its full version, it's a winner. (ha)

I rate "Death Wish" first though (crowd pleasing yes, but not the trashy crap people say it is and actually a pretty serious and realistic film in many ways).

"DW 3" is a silly ass thing indeed, but as a trashy popcorn flick it does what it does okay.
