Death Wish (1974)
Well ActionKidz, it's the wish that started em all. That's right, the first of a beloved series and Mr. Paul Kersey's origin story... DEATH WISH. This one's got everything, Bronson looking buff and old, the creepy director doing his creepy things, architecture, weirdly dressed criminals and young Jeff Goldblum's naked ass. Did we mention how ripped Bronson is? Really, The ABZ think he has a prime figure.

Is it just me or do Bronson’s hands look freakishly huge?
Hell yeah
Im a bleeding heart liberal who grew up shooting guns. I was also a jealous bf who beat up a guy with brass knuckles for banging my gf behind my back. This episode spoke to me.
Machine Gun Kelly is good young Bronson. It’s a Corman joint, it’s on prime
me to my boss: do you like action movies my boss: yeah i like one .. Vigilante? it's about an old guy me: are you.. talking about death wish? my boss: YEAH BEST 80s MOVIE me (a small black girl) : uh.. yeah.. you're right
Y’uze guyz should watch Violent City where Bronson plays master assassin Jeff Heston
I make one throwaway comment about not wanting to hear yet more about the Boyz shits...given that is already more that 10 percent of each podcast and about 1/3 of ANY podcast Gabrus is on and I get roasted as a Fecalphiliac. Never mind, just tell your “deadliest catch” shit joke again for the 300th time.
Is that Joe C???
Roger's family crest that gets a mention is actually my family crest. It's the O'Neill crest and the hand is known as 'The Red Hand of Ulster'. You can visit an island in the middle of a lake in Cavan where his descendanted is buried. A poem about this guy was read at JFK's funeral my friend. *pours water on sauna coals*
Please do 10 to midnight, it might qualify for octooky
I saw that far too many times far too young as it was one of the few movies they had at a place we went on holiday that only had one communal TV in reception. Parents would be at the bar and the kids next door watching a horrendously fucked up film 😂. That Richard Speck-esque nurse house rampage is burned onto my brain from the 90s.
Crazy reveal that FilmFan is a firefighter.
“Just do what you think a normal person would do” is both the best advice I’ve ever heard, and something that would force me to stop listening to/commenting at this podcast.
Hasbro never made a Pythona figure but the Gi Joe Collectors Club released one in 2016. https://www.yojoe.com/images/resize/h/375/imagestore/5972/83959.jpg
It had the Mandela Effect going for me as I’d have sworn she was in the original three-pack until I looked it up listening to the Joe ep.
Re: the punks fleeing the scene, Goldblum says "She's headed for the phone" (despite collapsing before getting to the phone) and then they all bolt. So you guys gave the movie way too much credit, it made no sense at all.
Knife crime isn’t new in the U.K., my home town of Glasgow has some of the best trained surgeons in the world for treating the wounds due to decades of problems. That said it’s dropped off up here a bit, London seems to be pretty fucking mental these days. 🤷🏻♂️
I think Rodgers mum is talking about the Red Hand of Ulster. It’s linked to the O’Neills but the story was popularised hundreds of years after they began using it, so who knows. It’s on the Northern Irish flag.
You won’t be too surprised that Michael Winner was into sexual sadism, according to one of his exes who sued him.
