Tockinit not horrible nor great
ScoobyWell Great visuals, story delivers no surprises
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
SnoopyStyle In the post-apocalyptic America, a group of survivors plans to launch a last ditch effort against cult leader Lucas when they are suddenly attacked. They are massacred with Claudia and her father taken prisoner. Baalca is Lucas' right-hand warrior woman. Harris and his mother escape and headed towards the Dakotas when they are captured by a patrol. Danielle is able to rescue Harris who plans to go back for his love Claudia. She reconnects with Chuck and his group including sidekick Iodine, two bosom babes, prisoner Rocket Man, and a computer called Dolores.This is the definition of a B-movie. Being Canadian only adds to its B-ness. It is low budget. The acting is amateurish. There is plenty of poorly filmed action. There is an off-camera lesbian rape. There is a baby factory. There are some exploitation T&A. All the boxes are filled for an unmitigated B-movie.
Bezenby It post-apocalypse time again! Everyone's decked out in leather gear, with open top jeeps and machine guns. There's mutant cannibals and weird cults, bad hair and a heavy metal soundtrack. Everything's fine in the Empire of Ash, except there's not much ash and plenty of greenery. In a post-apocalyptic world where cultivation is easily done, couldn't everyone get along and do a bit of farming?Of course not! It's time to strap on an M16 and blow away loads of people! This film has Big Bill Smith as the high priest of a cult trying to breed some old guy called the Grand Shepherd with some young fillies, and that's about all the plot I understood there because I couldn't make out a single thing Bill Smith was saying. You've also got a lady called Danielle wasting all the bad guys, her arms dealing buddies and a young guy who's mum got killed (this guy also has the best 'Nooooo!' scene ever, so extra points there). It's all just gun fights, explosions, boobs and cannibals, and nothing to worry about. What more do you need from a post-apocalyptic film? Nude oil massage? Well, there's one in here too! Empire of Ash 3 is just what you need - all thrills and no brains. Recommended!
zeppo-2 A pretty accurate quote from one of the characters in this bizarre post nuclear holocaust disaster film. Really it's a type of 'West Side Story' but without the singing and dancing, as two gangs try to take over what is left of the earth. Why bother, you might say? And could be right after you watch this fairly inept film. Lots of smoke and explosions and fights but not a lot in the way of plot or logic. But if you lower your criteria, this can be fun at times.It starts off as 'Mad Max,' then a bit of 'Porkys,' before a twinning of 'Cannibal Holocaust' with 'Dawn of the Dead.'The director must have realised this wasn't the masterpiece he was hoping for and to keep people's (read that as 'men') interest in it, he throws in lots of gratuitous nudity. Every woman here seems to need to take a shower/wash at the most inopportune moments. They even manage to sneak in a game of strip poker while waiting to be attacked. Also strong lesbian and S&M overtones too to keep everyone happy!And see if the ancient old man kept alive by the blood of the living, isn't a bit like Young Mr Grace from long running British sitcom, 'Are you been served?'
wolfhell88 Tough Warriors, good fights, lots of action, sexy amazon women and not to forget a great bad guy, played by the fantastic William Smith. If you are into B-movies, this one is a must. If not you wouldn't read this lines.
