705. Escape 2000 (1983)

And they say The Godfather (1972) is Italian. Filmed mainly in Rome, populated by Italian actors, directed by Enzo Castellari, written by Tito Capri, Escape 2000 is as American as Minestrone. Trampolines, flamethrowers, Henry Silva, The Big Apple feels lost in a sea of pasta. That’s Amore? Really Good Cause, Fire, Placing Pearl In A Home, Biofeedback, Slang, Timmy Bobby Rusty, Toblerone. “Hey, why is John Madden signing Samuel Goldwyn’s signature?”, “Wow, the new draconian HUD policies”, “I forgot my luggage!” “Okay, you convinced me!” or “Even though this is Italy, leave the Bronx”?

Moon Grey! (whose name the riffers never used) My favorite MST3K fightin’ journo!

If I can’t find this subtitled soon, I’ll just have to give in and learn Italian.

Toblerone the candy IS pretty good. But I still lament the demise of Peanut Butter Twix (probably happened in the prequel).
