Viewing Notes

Now Lucio Fulci’s New Gladiators (1984) is a bad film of another caliber. It’s basically Running Man or the same premise where prisoners fight it out on battle motorcycles in a future world. Love the miniatures and set pieces. Had to be fun wrecking all those bikes. And you can always count on Fred Williamson showing up as the same post-apocalyptic warrior.
