B-Movie Monday: Italian Post Apocalyptic Smackdown!

I broke down and got a print copy of Mutant Future. This, and the fortunate watching of Thundarr the Barbarian while eating pizza at CiCi's Pizza restaurant inspired this trailer collection. I give to you one of my favorite movie genres, the Italian Post Apocalyptic movie.

David Zuzelo on his blog Tomb It May Concern has one of the best essays on the Italian Post Apocalyptic genre here. And he has some great reviews in the book that he wrote called Tough To Kill Volume 1 - The Italian Action Explosion. Check it out!

Now on to the trailers!







The New Barabarians AKA The Warriors of the Wasteland



One of the greatest cheesefests of all time: Bruno Mattei's Rats: Night of Terror



The Bronx Trilogy trailer featuring the work of one of the great directors of Italian action films, Enzo Castellari:



And no Italian Post Apocalyptic Movie discussion woud be complete without some Yor the Hunter from the Future!



Have a great Monday!

Well, that single-handedly renewed my interest in GMing some Mutant Future.

(also, I wish the MST3K guys had watched more of these...)
