Violence violence violence! I do love a good B movie filled with great humor (thanks, Fred Williamson), bad English dubbing, and some seriously senseless destruction of life, limb and personal property with no clearly explicated purpose.. it makes me wish that my local theater would pick up dubiously awful and forgettable garbage like this so I could at least feel like I got my seven bucks' worth and be sure I'm not contributing to some Hollywood millionaire's personal Scientology donation fund.
I have never seen so many people explode in my life. There is at least one exploding person in each scene. There are no less than three decapitations in the whole movie. One guy's body even twitched after he had his melon lobbed off by a chassis-mounted, multibladed personal decapitation device. Wow.. there were some kind of great special effects in this movie, too. Well, that is to say that plenty of money was spent on explosions, fake blood, improvised costumes and cars converted into wild, freewheeling killing machines.
Fred Williamson plays a very proud mercenary in post-nuclear holocaust Earth, and boy does he ever do it with STYLE! He even gets a girl by the end. This movie has one of the best (ahem, most laughable) science-fiction artsy sex scenes ever done - inside a green cellophane tube, the girl in a bodysuit and the man shamelessly naked, all the while cutting in and out to scenes of the actors sitting by a polluted lake, discussing how they understand their respective life circumstances. It's about as awkward and hilarious as one could get short of sex on the Starship Enterprise with Data. This would be a good movie to show if you are trying to illustrate a psychological or sociological point about the human relationship with aggression and violence, because there isn't really much of a plot without the violence. In fact, the ends of the plot lie in the destruction of one group of people, who believe that their life purpose is the destruction of all humanity, so there you go. Take a good look at the costumes - lots of cool hats, codpieces, stockings.. it only gets better as the flick rolls on. Enjoy.

Another great Italian B-bomb!
so bad that it's good
Just pure silly fun :-D. Everything about this movie is ridiculous, but that is what makes it so enjoyable to watch. Anyway, I only paid a $1.99 for my DVD copy from Walgreens Drugs, so I feel I got my money worth. From the awful costumes (checkout those shoulder-pads) to the mindless dialogue and I found the transparent body-armor especially humorous. This movie had something to offer to every taste (or should I say tasteless) sense you may have. What I would really like to know is how the "Templars" were able to keep their uniforms so white in such a dirty environment, I guess they used the downtime between killing people for cleaning duties. I really enjoyed the helicopter type blade that one of the characters had on his vehicle (very nice) that he used to dispatch his victims. Overall this movie was worth the $1.99 I paid for it.
