Episode 7 - Death Wish II (1982)



After last week's Non-Cannon premiere, we now walk into the sequel to Charles Bronson's '70s classic.

Death Wish II is a bit of a different film from the original. While the first film was a bit more of a commentary on crime and the state of civiliztion vs barbarity, Death Wish II is a straight up revenge flick. In this one, Paul Kersey is merely after those who killed and assaulted those he cared for. What ends up transpiring is more of a straight up action film than the original.

As it is, it's not as strong as the original, which we go into more in the episode itself. However, it is still solid and fun '80s entertainment.

Randy's Score: 3/5
JD's Score: 3/5
