Lo stesso distributore di
Atomik Circus ha portato nel nostro bel paese anche altri grandi capolavori, come ad esempio
The Curse (
Bloodline: The Legend of El Charro).
Col senno di poi avrebbe fatto meno danno importando fusti di rifiuti radioativi, ma ormai...
Tre belle figliuole organizzano un viaggio di riposo in culo al mondo (che pare trovarsi in una sperduta provincia americana semi-desertica vicino al confine messicano) e trascinano con loro - mi vien da dire per punirla - anche una loro pseudo-amica che ha da poco perduto la sorella (ma che distratta!
)
Una grande idea. Una idea migliore sarebbe stata il darsi al porno (è uno dei film più sboccati e volgari - a parole - che abbia mai visto), ma lasciamo perdere.
Comunque sia, tra un pompino e qualche strano incontro riescono ad arrivare all'agognato schifosissimo posto, dove l'occupazione principale diventa subito procacciarsi maschi da ciulo.
Purtroppo per loro, a questo punto, arriva senza se, senza ma e senza molte giustificazioni plausibili pure
El Charro (lo stesso che fece
Zangief in
Street Fighter... che mito!)
Questo gianduione è un misto tra uno spaventapasseri e
The Undertaker e, per motivi tutti suoi, ce l'ha con la protagonista (avrebbe fatto meglio a prendersela con regista e sceneggiatore, invece).
In originale aveva la voce del grande caratterista indiano
Danny Trejo (già visto in un
altro capolavoro recentemente commentato...)
Il riassunto sembra un po' confuso ma non è colpa mia: l'ho visto qualche settimana fa ed ero molto rinco. Inoltre non credo che fosse poi molto meglio di come l'ho raccontato...

Prima o poi farò un logo per il trashometro.

Imprisoned for armed robbery and drug offenses, he successfully completed a 12-step rehabilitation program that changed his life. While speaking at a Cocaine Anonymous meeting in 1985, Trejo met a young man who later called him for support. Trejo went to meet him at what turned out to be the set of Runaway Train (1985). Trejo was immediately offered a role as a convict extra, probably because of his tough tattooed appearance. Also on the set was a screenwriter who did time with Trejo in San Quentin. Remembering Trejo's boxing skills, the screenwriter offered him $350 per day to train the actors for a boxing match. Director Andrei Konchalovsky saw Trejo training Eric Roberts and immediately offered him a featured role as Roberts' opponent in the film. Trejo has subsequently appeared in many other films, usually as a tough criminal or villain.
