Sam Panico Y gets ejected out in the most ridiculous manner possible. Or the most awesome.The Bronx hasn't gotten any better. In fact, it's worse. Now, there is no law, scavengers abound and ammunition is the main currency. But the General Construction (GC) Corporation wants to change all that. Their leader, President Clark (Enio Girolami, Warriors of the Wasteland) wants to tear down the city and build a "city of the future" ala Robocop, but four years before.They offer the people left behind condos in New Mexico, which everyone knows is a lie, just like the jobs on Mars of Total Recall, but seven years earlier.The Disinfestation Annihilation Squad is in town the wiping out anyone who won't leave. Under the direction of former prison warden Floyd Wangler (when you can't get John Saxon, call for Henry Silva), they're wiping out anyone who won't leave. Seriously, it's like Castellari said, "If we can't get big stars like the first one, let's kill everything and everyone in this one." He wasn't joking. This film boasts a death toll of 174, including 110 shootings, 30 blown up real good, 9 set ablaze, one stabbing, one off-screen murder (boo!), according to IMDB 4 unknowns, 6 people fried by electricity, 2 bashed in the face and one smooshed by the back end of a rifle. This movie takes no prisoners.It's up to the gangs of the Bronx to take back the city. Dablone (Antonio Sabato Sr.), who is dressed as a pirate, is the man who can get them all behind the plan - kidnap the President of GC so that he'll have to negotiate with the people of the Bronx. Luckily, they have Moon Gray, a reporter who was born in the Bronx and wants to make a real difference, to help.There's only one man who can go under the city - that's Trash's idea - and make all this happen: Strike, the man who did that big underground bank job and completely wiped Tiffany's out. He doesn't need money anymore. He's hiding in his lair with his kid, Junior, who is apt to call you a fag when you meet him. Yep, this movie was made in the 80's, when we didn't worry about how we talked and were totally insensitive.Of course, even the best plans get screwed up. Wangler kills the President because that was the plan all along. The gangs all get killed, almost to a member (blink and you'll miss the late Italian porn star Moana Pozzi) except for Trash, just like the last film.If only there had been a third one! I guess you can fit Warriors of the Wasteland as there is so much crossover between cast and crew.Trust me - this movie is anything but boring. It makes me so happy to revisit the bonkers world of the 1990 Bronx one more time, even if Trash doesn't talk much and just scowls all the time.There's one moment that sums this whole film up to me: Trash walks past a large window, one big enough to just step inside. Instead, he does a somersault through the window. Why? Who cares!

Arlis Fuson Mark Greggory is back as Trash and now it's ten years later and he still lives in the "no mans land" dubbed the Bronx. His gang is no longer with him, but he finds new underground thugs to help him battle a rich politician and his crooked cops that want to demolish whats left of the Bronx.I ask myself, why in the hell would anyone want to stay there for...Well this time we have a new writer and that is probably half of the problem. The great Dardano Sachetti is not on board and Tito Carpi wrote this one. It seemed better produced although it was made less than a year later and with the same producer and Enzo Castrelli still on board as director. They tried making it a better movie and took the cheesiness down a notch and tried to make it more flawless. Doing these cautious edits and attention to detail actually made the movie worse. The flaws are part of what makes a b-movie great.Don't get me wrong the movie was still cheesy, overdubbing was bad, plot had funny bits and there was some over the top BS going on with the story line. I mean from a couple pistol shots blowing up a helicopter to the same locations being re-used but trying to make them different places. Trash looked less in shape and seemed to be a lot less cool here, maybe it was to try to make him more serious now that he is working alone. I just absolutely love Mark's work but this is perhaps his worst acting job.Mark is still good even if this was his worst role(that i have seen). Henry Silva was great as he always is and most of the cast did a great job for this type of film. I didn't care much for Antonio Sabata Sr. He is always hit or miss with me. The music was a lot different but I liked it.What can I say about this, it was a cheesy Italian b-movie action/ post apocalyptic mess. I enjoyed it a lot, but it was trying too hard to learn from the mistakes of the first one and that made it a bit too serious for a film that should never take itself that serious to start with. The directing was okay but the editing needed loads of work. Music was fitting and acting was middle of the road. I didn't care much for how it ended, but I guess it got its point across, and still left room for a sequel...but I am guessing nobody bought it after they saw this one...4/10 stars but I can only recommend it to those who love the cheesy exploitation films as much as I do.

Red-Barracuda This post-apocalyptic film is a barrage of non-stop action and cheese. A ruthless corporation decides to exterminate inhabitants of the Bronx. In the future. In the year 2000. The said inhabitants from the future, strangely resemble every conceivable type of pop star from the early 1980's; from synth pop futurists to New Wave cheesemongers to heavy metal poodle-permers. Funnily enough, it only appears to be 'the future' in the Bronx - on the streets of Manhattan it clearly seems to be 1983. Confused? You should be; this is after all an 80's Italian sci-fi actioner.Bronx Warriors 2 is full of action and stupidity. It's a lot of fun. It's chock-full of silly characters. The star Mark Gregory makes for a ridiculous hero. Antonio Sabato is hilariously OTT as a character inexplicably called Toblerone. Henry Silva phones in a performance of a man shouting on a phone.You can never truthfully be bored with this movie. It's action from start to finish. And there are some hilarious details to enjoy. For instance, the model of the redeveloped city - in it, not only have they went to the trouble of hilariously depicting the Bronx buildings in crumbling detail but if this is true to scale then the Bronx is only three blocks big! This film would make a great double-bill alongside Bruno Mattei's equally trashy post-apocalyptic movie, Rats (1984). That would be a good night of fun for the Italian Z-Movie aficionado. Ciao!

Witchfinder General 666 Enzo G. Castellari definitely is a gifted director of Westerns (such as "Keoma"), Crime flicks (such as "Street Law") or War cinema ("Deadly Mission"). His extremely trashy 'Bronx' films are definitely no highlights of his career, more precisely they are about as dumb as films get, but they're nevertheless highly entertaining pieces of trash cinema."Fuga Dal Bronx" aka. "Escape From The Bronx" of 1983 is the even trashier sequel to the, already very trashy "1990: The Bronx Warriors" (1982), which was only made to cash in on the success of films like "Escape from NY" or "The Warriors. This is, on the one hand, even sillier than its successor, but on the other hand even more action-packed and entertaining, and a film that Italian Trash enthusiasts should not miss.10 years after the events in "1990: The Bronx Warriors", the owner of a company is planning to tear down the hellish gangland of the Bronx, in order to build a new Utopian center of New York. Officially, the inhabitants are offered houses in New Mexico, but they are really forced out of their neighborhood by extermination squads lead by the unscrupulous Floyd Wrangler (the great Henry Silva), who has ordered to kill everybody who refuses to leave. Tough biker and former gang leader Trash (Mark Gregory, who played the same role in the first film), decides to fight back...The story is even more forgettable than in "Bronx Warriors", but the constant violent action in "Fuga dal Bronx" makes up for the moronic plot. It's an enormous number of explosions and violent killings as well as the wonderful trash-feeling that makes this film worthwhile. Although this film was made only 1 year after its successor, Mark Gregory fits in his role quite well now. I didn't like him in the first film, since he still looked like a teenager, and even though the guy is not much of an actor, he fits in the role of Trash quite well now. In exchange for the true stars of the first film, Fred Williamson and Vic Morrorw, "Escape From The Bronx" features one of the greatest icons of Italian genre cinema, Henry Silva, as the villain. All things considered, I wouldn't generally recommend "Fuga dal Bronx", but it is definitely worthwhile for my fellow fans of trash flicks. Enjoyable for fans!
