Warriors of the Wasteland (1982, Color): In the post-apocaIyptic world of 2019 A.D., a cult of executioners terrorizes the straggling remnants of humanity. The bIoodthirsty Templars, an army of crazed killers led by an egomaniacaI tyrant known onIy as One, roam the scorched and barren landscape in jerry-rigged death cars, rooting out the survivors and sIaughtering them. One man, Scorpion, has dedicated his life to fighting the evil Templars. He is joined in this blood feud by Nadir, a renegade fighter with a bad attitude and a quiver fuIl of explosive-tipped arrows. Grossly outnumbered, the two righteous warriors have the fate of earth's future in their hands.
This ltaIian variation on the mega-hit Mad Max series is a high-octane blood-bath. Fred "The Hammer" WilIiamson stars as arrow-bomber Nadir. WilIiamson made a name for himself as a street-wise tough guy in "blaxpIoitation" films like That Man Bolt (1973) and BIack Caesar (1973) and more recently appeared in the Robert Rodriquez indie shocker, From Dusk Til Dawn (1996) as a vampire hunter.
Starring Fred WilIiamson, Timothy Brent, George Eastman; Directed by Enzo G. Castellari.
Cosmos: War of the Planets (1977, Color): Mysterious signaIs from beyond the soIar system have the Earth in a panic. The Space Command sends maverick Rocket Captain AIex HamiIton and his crew of astronauts into uncharted regions of the gaIaxy to investigate. After a disastrous encounter with aIien saucers, their crippIed ship is puIled by a gravity beam down to a rogue pIanet ruIed by a cybernetic monster. The eviI machine needs humans to repair its damaged circuitry so that it can carry out its plan to conquer the universe - beginning with Earth!
From the same ItaIian crew that brought Battle of the Stars (1977), War of the Robots (1978) and Space Odyssey (1979) to the screen, Cosmos: War of the PIanets pays homage to some of the greatest science fiction hits of the time, featuring a ship-board "orgasmatron" (a la Woody AlIen's 1973 hit, SIeeper) and a neurotic out-of-control computer (shades of HaI 9000 in Kubrick's 1968 masterpiece, 2001: A Space Odyssey).
Starring John Richardson, Yanti Somer, West Buchanan, Katia Christine; Directed by Alfonso Brescia. |
