I love the use of synthesizer in this movie, one of the first that I can recall using it as it's score. It adds menace to an already menacing movie. They banned this movie in NYC and a few other cities for fear that it would incite violence. New York was a war zone in 1979.

 

Fun fact: David Patrick Kelly, who played Luther in The Warriors, also played a character named Luther in the great 48 hours.

Stellar film. Too bad the rest of the franchise is such

I keep threatening to do this scene at an Open Mic Night here at a bar I can’t stand but there’s no way I can memorize the entire scene

You have to admire Luther's never-say-die spirit. Most guys would've have succumbed to that brutal beatdown at Coney Island, but he dusted himself off and got right back into he game.

He’s the poster boy for sticktoitiveness*

Must be a regional thing. It’s definitely embedded and working on my end. It’s his classic scene from JFK

I discovered it for the first time tonight from you and I can tell it'd be something that would make me immediately mute the tv/radio.

I wish I could go back to the time when I didn’t know it existed

Also, I’m sorry

Lake Berryessa is only about 90 miles away from me. We were supposed to be over there a few weeks back, as you can drive the “long way” to Napa from the lake, but the concert we were seeing was canceled. Was definitely planning to stop at the site of the attack. Will be driving through Vallejo next Thursday, site of other ZK murders 

Coming home from Bay Area last weekend we stopped at Berryessa Brewing, which is about 8 miles east of the lake. No idea how close we were to the murder spot. We will be going that way in January and I plan to check out the locations
