Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi and William Thrasher discuss Death Wish 2. After his daughter is murdered, Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) tracks down and kills the thugs responsible.

Grittier than the first, Death Wish 2 is the kind of sequel that is nearly a remake of the original. Vincent Gardenia makes a welcome return as Detective Ochoa and Jill Ireland (Bronson's real-life wife) has good chemistry as a romantic lead. The rape scenes in this one are uglier and more exploitative than the original. Death Wish 2 is disturbing just for the sake of being disturbing.

Thrasher thinks the Rifftrax on Star Raiders is good fun. Mat felt Dark Phoenix starts off well but ends Fox's long running X-Men saga in an underwhelming fashion. Mat thinks Nintendo Quest is a documentary that lacks a compelling lead in a novel premise of trying to collect all the NES games over a month on a fixed budget. They also talk about the old Marvel What If? comics.
