And they should do it while Mr. Eastwood is still with us.

That would be up to Warner Bros. at this point.

I really hope that other titles like Rosemary's Baby and Chinatown are in the pipeline.

The more 4K transfers we can keep out of Paramount's hands, the better.

In this explosive story of revenge and urban violence, screen legend Charles Bronson (Mr. Majestyk, Breakheart Pass) plays Paul Kersey, a bleeding-heart liberal who has a change of opinion after his wife and daughter are brutally attacked by a gang of thugs in their apartment. His daughter is sexually assaulted and his wife is murdered. Bronson then turns vigilante as he stalks the mean streets of New York on the prowl for muggers, hoodlums and the like. Another classic collaboration between Bronson and director Michael Winner (Chato’s Land, The Mechanic, The Stone Killer), Death Wish is a violent, controversial film that is frank and original in its treatment of urban crime and the average citizen’s helplessness in dealing with it. Jazz great Herbie Hancock (Colors) wrote the musical score. Vincent Gardenia (Death Wish II), Steven Keats (The Friends of Eddie Coyle), Stuart Margolin (TV’s The Rockford Files), Stephen Elliott (Beverly Hills Cop) and Hope Lange (Blue Velvet) co-star. And watch for Jeff Goldblum (The Fly) and John Herzfeld (Cobra) in their film debuts.

Epic artwork! It will be mine

[redxrebellion]

Pretty light on the extras

[sb5]

Paul Talbot commentary

[DaylightsEnd]

I'm in. No way I'm preordering from Amazon. I'd prefer to get it before the end of February. Think I'll order direct from Kino on this one.

[KillerCannibal]

Lack of more extras aside, the 4K transfer, slip, alternate art, and Talbot commentary all make this a must-buy.

[redxrebellion]

Who does better commentaries, Talbot or Gambon?

[DaylightsEnd]

Definitely a must-have. I'd buy Death Wish breakfast cereal if Kino rolled it out.

I know it's an mgm title, but it's befuddling and frustrating that we don't have The Mechanic (1972) in 4k uhd.

[Burt Lancaster]

Scorpio is another Michael Winner movie Kino should release with a new scan. I have the TT disc but it shows its age.

the only extra I would care about is an interview with Bronson... and he's not around to do one (and never liked to do them to begin with...)

[JoelGoodsen]

One of my most anticipated titles.
