Escape from the Bronx
Escape from the Bronx (Italian: Fuga dal Bronx), also known as Bronx Warriors 2 in the United Kingdom and Escape 2000, is a 1983 Italian action film directed by Enzo G. Castellari. It was featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000 under its Escape 2000 name. It is a sequel to 1990: The Bronx Warriors.
Several years after the events of 1990: The Bronx Warriors, Trash, former leader of the Riders gang, is now a cynical loner in the impoverished, lawless wasteland of the Bronx and trading in stolen ammunition.
The General Construction (GC) Corporation, led by President Clark, wishes to tear down the Bronx to turn it into “the city of the future.” To do so, they need to clear the current population from the area and have employed former prison warden Floyd Wangler and a private battalion of "Disinfestors" to burn, shoot, and gas those who will not leave willingly.
While the bums, vagrants, and elderly are easy prey, the remaining warrior gangs of the Bronx will not go quietly. A rebel army of all surviving Bronx gangs, led by Doblòn, is literally holed up underground.
When Trash's parents are burned alive by Disinfestors, he takes revenge by leading ruthless guerrilla attacks on the clean-up squads. The GC Corporation and Wangler retaliate with nastier means of attacking the rebellion (such as rigging hostages with bombs). Wangler calls all the squads' leaders and orders them to find and kill Trash, as he fears the underground gangs could recognize the courageous Trash as a new, charismatic leader.
Trash, Doblòn, and a crusading reporter named Moon Gray team up with psychotic mercenary Crazy Strike and his equally crazy son Junior. Together, they plan to kidnap President Clark and use him as a bargaining chip to put the Bronx back in the hands of the gangs.
Strike, Trash, and Moon move to the surface in order to carry out the kidnapping of Clark, who is about to attend a propaganda ceremony in the Bronx. As the three adults go up, Junior remains down below to cover their subsequent escape with explosives. When on the surface, the trio realize that the area is controlled by a security force. Moon stages a diversion by suddenly appearing during the governor's speech and denouncing Clark and the governor, accusing them of lying. In response, one of the governor's men kills Moon and places a gun on her to stage a self-defense action.
Chaos and confusion break out in the area. President Clark tries to use an old wooden door as shelter, but discovers that Trash is behind the door as well. In the midst of the confusion, Trash abducts Clark while Crazy Strike covers their escape with the use of explosives and hand-bombs. Trash, Clark, and Strike go back to a collector that gives them safe passage into the underground area; their escape is further helped by explosives set off by Junior.
