New Gladiators (DVD)

The Troma Team is proud to present a classic take on the future of entertainment from the master of Italian splatter, Lucio Fulci (THE BEYOND, ZOMBIE). Tomorrows TV is bigger, badder and bloodier than your wildest expectations in THE NEW GLADIATORS!!! Blaxploitation star Fred Williamson (BLACK CAESAR, FROM DUSK TILL DAWN) and Jared Martin star in this violent sci-fi satire pitting criminals as contestants battling each other for the most precious prizetheir lives! Martin plays Blake, a gladiator on TVs hottest program Thrillkill, a deadly tournament where there is only one victor and many victims. The plot thickens when Blake decides to retire, prompting the shows-ratings hungry producer, Cortez (Claudio Cassinelli) to frame Blake for a crime he didnt commit. And in the future the only way to prove your innocence is by proving you can stay alive in the Battle of the Damned. Fulci bars no holds with his signature extreme style, including slow motion throat slashings, close-up body crush
