Death Wish II, III & IV - 8/14/12

From MGM's website:

Charles Bronson says “no dice” to punks, bringing his own kind of vigilante justice to the streets as the heroic Paul Kersey in Death Wish II, Death Wish III, and Death Wish IV available on Blu-ray August 14.

***************************************

This news excites me too much to not give it a thread of its own. Death Wish III is a quintessential example of exploitation cinema at its finest.

IIRC, Paramount owns the rights to the first one...

I'm sure it'll be the theatrical and not the uncut version for Death Wish II though.

Really hope Part II is released uncut, even though I have a gut feeling it won't be.

There is also a Death Wish V, but I think Lionsgate owns the rights to that one.

II-IV were great mainly because they were part of the Cannon Films library.

Hopefully II comes with an improved audio track -- love the Jimmy Page score.

Re: Death Wish II, III & IV - 8/14/12

Will these be sold together or separate?

The details seem to indicate they will be separate. I sure hope so.

droidguy1119 mentioned the version of Death Wish II on Netflix streaming is that of the uncut version. In HD no less.

If that's the case, I would assume we would see the uncut version on the Blu-ray.

I have Netflix streaming and I don't see Death Wish II anywhere. Unless it was already expired and removed.

May have to get these. Now if Paramount would get off their lazy asses and release the original we'd be good.
