I was just taking a look through imdb and noticed that BRONX EXECUTIONER (that was innacurately credited to Umberto Lenzi until a few years ago) is out on DVD since 2003! However, the director's (Vanio Amici- an editor who switched to directing actually) pseudonymn was also used by Lenzi.

Does anybody know more on that release? I bet it's fullscreen, although amazon mentions nothing about aspect ratio. The cover artwork stinks too.

As for the film itself, I am sure that nobody likes it but I thought it was somehow enjoyable when I watched it a few years back.

It's full-screen, as you surmised. A very low-budget release, probably mastered from a videocassette. I got mine copy from a "three DVDs for $10" bin at Walgreen's. Well worth it, though.

Looks like you can pick it up as part of a 4-movie set from Brentwood called "Future Cops"....

The other titles are:-
Hands os Steel - dir. Sergio Martino with George Eastman & John Saxon
Assassin - dir. Sandor Stern
Warriors of the Wasteland - dir. Enzo Catsellari with George Eastman & Fred Williamson

It retails for about US$5-6, so I guess the transfers will be direct ports from VHS or summat....

Thanks for your response!

So this means that I'll stick to my old Greek vhs of the movie- it's cover artwork is way better than the one in the disc which totally stinks.

Any thoughts on the film itself? It's probably the last Italian post-apocalypse ever made.

I would say,whether is not an excellent film,still it catches that gloomy feeling of the pst apocalypse films of that time.
Vanio Amici,seems to be in a very low budget and his artistic views are limited,but he tries his best,and so the actors.
The greek cover artwork is excellent work too,a classic example of video art expression.
