“Death Kiss” (** out of four) was a thinly done gloss on the classic “Death Wish” about a vigilante (Robert Kovacs) with a mysterious past who moves to a city infested with crime and seeks to protect a young mother (Eva Hamilton) and her daughter by taking the law into his own hands and killing a gang (led by Richard Tyson) who are preying the streets. Kovacs’ startling resemblance to the deceased Charles Bronson is absolutely eerie at times and makes this worth watching for a few minutes but everything else about his performance is deceased as well. A few good vigilante kills give this some style but it’s still pretty low-rent and underdone. Not as powerful or entertaining as Eli Roth’s recent “Death Wish” remake but about on par with most of Bronson’s “Death Wish” sequels from the 80’s.
