The story of vigilante Paul Kersey continued with Death Wish II (1982) & Death Wish III (1985) - but did they add anything new? @docsbrown.bsky.social and I grit our teeth and investigate! Apple: buff.ly/414OqZd Spotify: buff.ly/4gqv2LQ YouTube: buff.ly/3CEYCiF

Is the original Death Wish (1974) more than just a big budget exploitation film? @docsbrown.bsky.social and I found a lot of satire and irony underpinning the vigilantism. Apple: buff.ly/40Z0CeS Spotify: buff.ly/3Q0Bu1h YouTube: buff.ly/4jUussG
