Okay, you are in a bar slugging down a Stella. Life doesn't get any better. Then life does get better. Emanuelle from all those 'Emanuelle' movies walks in and sits next to you. She gives you a look of wanting desire. Uh oh...here's the catch...she can read all your thoughts. Does she give you a spare key to her hotel room? Does she plant a passionate kiss on you? Or does she slap you and reach for her stun-gun? A lot to think about, I know, but in this Italian apocalyptic wasteland film, directed by Joe D'Amato, we will see how a telepathic Emanuelle might behave. Today's feature, "Endgame- Bronx Lotta Finale," starring everyone's favorite Emanuelle, the Indonesian beauty herself, Laura Gemser.
Okay, so she doesn't play the role of Emanuelle in this film, Ms. Gemser's exotic allure is still the highlight of this film. In 2025 most of the Earth has been turned into a radioactive wasteland. A Nazi like government controls a major city. To keep the citizens in line a game-show pits schmucks against a team of hunters tasked to kill them. Ron Shannon (Al Cliver) is reigning champion of this show and he is about to be set loose so the hunt can commence. Oh yes...the mutants. The government wants them exterminated. Lilith (Gemser) is the beautiful leader of a ragtag band of telepathic mutants. They are the next phase of human evolution and they can read minds...which the tyrannical government (and fraternity boys everywhere) fears.
While eluding hunters, Shannon is approached by Lilith. She offers to pay him millions if he will lead the surviving telepathic mutants to safety outside the city. He accepts. Shannon is now on the run with Lilith and her peeps, but the military, the hunters, and a host of evil mutants are in pursuit. Oh yes, the evil mutants...the resemble fish-men, lizard-men, and ape-men. They are regressing as a species and want to tear apart the telepathic ones. Actually, they have more humiliating and carnal plans for Lilith. With machine-guns, grenades, motorcycles, and knives, World War 4 is fought just outside city limits as Shannon seeks to protect and deliver the telepathic ones and also protect the chastity of Emanuelle...I mean Lilith.
Will the next phase of human evolution survive and deliver us all from a the ruling tyrannical government? Will Emanuelle...I mean Lilith, be spared rape an humiliation by the disgusting fish-man mutant? Will Ron Shannon and Lilith hook up and live happily ever after or will she read his man-like thoughts? This is a standard Italian post-apocalypse film but the ravishing Laura Gemser makes it a worthwhile take. Fun at times, and sadly brutal at others, enjoy "Endgame- Bronx Lotta Finale,"
It's good to see that movies like this can happen without starring Arnold Swan nagger, you got a think for that indo babe, don't blame you, a very interesting story line, don't governments want to know our most intimate thoughts? Keeping the telepathic mutants alive might work out.
