In a future dominated by ultra-violent TV entertainment, the top-rated sport Kill-Bike drafts two condemned gladiators for a ”Battle Of The Damned.”

Lucio Fulci entered the ”80s Italian Sci-Fi arena armed with full-throttle visuals, hard chrome nihilism and mad blasts of il maestro”s signature grisly mayhem: In a future dominated by ultra-violent TV entertainment, the top-rated global sport Kill-Bike drafts two condemned gladiators – Jared Martin of DALLAS and Fred Williamson of THE INGLORIOUS BASTARDS – for a ”Battle Of The Damned” in the Roman Coliseum. Howard Ross (NEW YORK RIPPER), Al Cliver (ENDGAME) and Donald O”Brien (DR. BUTCHER M.D.) co-star in this ”wheelie-poppin” good time” (Comeuppance Reviews) from a script co-written by Fulci, Dardano Sacchetti (THE BEYOND) & Elisa Briganti (ZOMBIE) and featuring a pounding synth score by two-time Oscar® nominee Riz Ortolani, now scanned in 4K from an IP print for the first time in America.
