Two things confused me about Death Wish

I think they said the funeral was wherever the wife was from which was another state. So maybe the weather was different there. It may have even been upstate New York which is much further north obviously so they could have different weather there.

As far as the peephole. Yeah, she made a mistake or she was very trusting. Things like that happen all the time. There would be no such crimes if that weren't the case. I used to work as a Census worker and some people just open the door. This is in a big city with a lot of crime. I didn't have a uniform, I could have been anybody. I could have had other people hiding out of sight. I just saw on the news a similar crime happened in my city where a guy pretended to be a delivery man or a repairman and he raped a woman and set her apartment on fire.

How is the weather not consistent? In the winter there can easily be not a snowflake in sight and then within an hour snow covering everything. Happens all time.

In response to your first query, this is all you need to know; just because you would not take the action that the movie character took, does not mean that it is unlikely, or unusual. In this case, just because opening the door was not the safest thing to do does not make it far-fetched. I mean you can probably think of a hundred examples of where you did something that could have been dangerous, whether it was leaving your door unlocked, or leaving a drink unattended at a bar, while you went to the bathroom. If something bad had happened, like you getting burglarized, or drugged, then you could say, "gee, I sure shouldn't have done that," but it you wouldn't question if it was believable or not. This question is just pedantic and silly. Find something else to harp on.

Speaking of pedantic and sill questions, the weather? really? c'mon man, you can do better than that. I mean, the very beginning of the movie shows the main characters taking a vacation in Hawaii, then, when they return, they're all wearing heavy coats. Use your imagination for a second and tell me what season you think they are trying to get you to think it is... Are you really going to try to tell me that you have never seen a snow storm pop up out of nowhere? That was hardly a blizzard, btw. It was windy and it was snowing, but that was far from a blizzard. GTFO with this nonsense complaining.

No sh!t. I live in NY state, and just because the ground is bare today doesn't mean it will be three days from now. There's no snow, and then it snows, and then there IS snow. Hard concept to grasp, I'll admit.
