1990: THE BRONX WARRIORS (1982)

"A Heavy Metal Journey Into An Urban Hell Where Everything Was Done Wrong!"



"In a post-apocalyptic New York City, a policeman infiltrates the Bronx Warriors, which has become a battleground for several murderous street gangs. It's the dead of night, and nobody at all is on the street. On the other side of the bridge, a Manhattan runaway, girl named Young Ann is attacked by a gang of street hockey players! These guys are on roller skates, dressed in fiberglass safety gear, and are wielding hockey sticks as weapons. They chase Young Ann into a dead end and surround her, but then they are themselves surrounded by a much tougher-looking gang who at least have the self-respect to ride motorcycles. In the middle of this chaos, gang leader Trash steps in to take care of her."

Yep, you guessed it. This is a post-apoc ESCAPE FROM NY/ THE WARRIORS knockoff.

Directed by Italo-action specialist Enzo (KEOMA, STREET LAW) Castellari.

Looks like I'll all day @ the film.

The first and second rule for sure.

Enzo Castellari is one of my favorite Italian directors, dude does no wrong.

I love Italian bleak future cheese. Is it just me or does the lead guy walk funny in the movie...like he's a ballet dancer or something?

That coupled with his shaved chest, beautiful flowing hair, and dolled up face.

Hmmmm.
