The Death Wish films were great fun , but they felt they had to make the gangs in rainbow styling. I saw a marathon of them recently and they really look hilarious.

Chato's Land was a serious Bronson revenge flick as well.

Gz says I like those Bronson films where he takes personal revenge on those who previously hurt his family

I'll put my vote in for Mel Gibson and the Mad Max series. He thinks it through for maximum revenge and exquisite suffering.

However, if I'm going to vote for the next president, I would like it to be somebody like Bronson, or Dirty Harry or some other cut throat that doesn't care about the press or his image..

Bruce Willis might get all 3 of my votes.

Bronson's "Death Wish" series and Eastwood's "Dirty Harry" series were excellent! I have all of both series on my computer and I never get tired of watching them.

America needs real heroes like them in real life!

It's hard to pick my favorite scene from the Death Wish movies. The first three movies were better than the final two, but I think the first part of Death Wish 4, when Bronson kills the rapists, is my favorite scene.

Rapist: "Who the fuck are you?"
Bronson: "Death." (bang...bang...bang!)

I also love this scene...

Bronson: "Do you believe in Jesus?"
Thug: (clutching the crucifix on his necklace) "Yes I do."
Bronson: "Well, you're gonna meet him." (bang...bang...bang!)

The list of great scenes goes on and on, but here is a nice capsule of all the gunshots fired in the Death Wish movies.
