Re: What did you watch today?
Rome, 2072 A.D.: The New Gladiators (First viewing, YouTube) – 5.5/10
In the dystopian future, global TV networks are king. The most popular reality TV show is a savage gladiatorial contest called Battle of the Damned where death row prisoners from all over the world battle one another on tricked-out motorcycles with all sorts of weapons until the last man standing is declared the winner. When Drake - one of the champions - uncovers a conspiracy behind the show in its final round, all hell breaks loose.
Jared Martin, Fred Williamson and Al Cliver star. Lucio Fulci directs.
Interesting ideas but too much talking and not much action.
Genre: Sci-fi, Action, Thriller
Worth watching? No
Worth re-watching? No
Bottom-line? Skip it unless you like watching 80’s Italian post-apocalyptic (futuristic) movies like me
