Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Manthast Absolutely amazing

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Kayden This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

jrd_73 When I was around twelve years-old, and VHS still reined in video stores, a friend of mine told me about this movie. In particular, he mentioned the scene where a villainous used spike gloves to rip open a man's throat. That seemed pretty depraved to my twelve year-old brain. Unfortunately, my parents were not as liberally minded as my friend's parents, so I was not allowed to rent Exterminators of the Year 3000. It has taken me decades, but I have finally seen Exterminators of the Year 3000. It is a shame that I was not allowed to watch it at twelve because I would have liked the film much more back then. Then, I would have thought that "Alien" was a cool name for a hero, and "Crazy Bull" was perfect for a villain. I also would have found the film's moderate violence hard edged. Now, I am like "seen it." Exterminators of the Year 3000 is an average Italian made ripoff of The Road Warrior. In The Road Warrior everyone fought over oil; here it is drinkable water. In The Road Warrior a kid threw a deadly boomerang; here the kid has a robotic arm and throws rocks so fast that they kill. And, yes, the villain does ride a hood at the climax (a car though, not a truck). This film fails to stand out in any significant way. It is just there. Fans of Road Warrior rip-offs might get some chuckles from it, but most viewers are just going to shrug their shoulders when Exterminators of the Year 3000 ends. By the way, the title is inaccurate. It refers to Crazy Bull's car that Alien has stolen, but there is only one car (not plural).

Aleksandar Sarkic I really love Italian exploitation movies from the beginning of the 80s. it seems they were most obsessed with Mad Max movie, there are a plenty of Mad Max rip offs but this one is definitely one of the best. What to say you have a small boy with prothetic arm who is throwing rocks on his enemies from 2km away, and yes he can drink 5 bottles of beer, and he has a hamster, so cute, you also have very hot women like in every Italian exploitation movie, and other things are like in Mad Max, I can say they are done very good for slow budget, a plenty of killings and explosions, really cool. Music is also very interesting, ofcourse it is totally synthesizer driven but 80s synth music is the best thing to ever happen, and what is interesting, this movie has some atmosphere, so if you are lover of post apocalypse movies, and 80's action flicks this is definitely for you, you will enjoyed it for sure, and don't forget everything of this is happening in the year 3000, very humorous.

ersinkdotcom Director Jules Harrison's (aka Giuliano Carnimeo) low-budget Italian / Spanish blend of "The Road Warrior" and Death Race" blows up all over the screen with exciting car crashes and chases. To add even more camp to the movie, the most ridiculous dialogue you'll ever hear is overdubbed as half the cast speaks English and the others shout their lines in their native tongues. In "Exterminators of the Year 3000," the post-apocalyptic earth is a desert and water is the most precious substance of all. A band of survivors must turn to a mysterious stranger (Robert Iannucci) to battle a ruthless gang of motorcycle psychos for control of the wasteland and the water. Can their reluctant savior defeat the sadistic outlaws and get the water back home before their supply runs out?Every part of "Exterminators of the Year 3000" invokes images of other end-of-the-world films of the 1970s and 1980s. The demolition derby jousting and destruction is obviously heavily influenced by "Mad Max," "The Road Warrior," and the original "Death Race 2000." The survivor's compound, water plant, and other locations are extremely reminiscent of the ones seen in "Logan's Run" and "Battle for the Planet of the Apes." Anti-hero Alien looks like he walked off the set of "Megaforce" wearing Barry Bostwick's hair and headband combined with Peter Hunter's costume from "Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone." Alicia Moro's wardrobe and makeup department appear to have watched episodes of "Battlestar Galactica" and studied Farrah Fawcett's hairstyle in "Saturn 3" to get their inspiration. Head bad guy Fernando Bilboa looks as if he was given permission to raid the left-over wardrobe from "The Road Warrior" for his outfit.Although it's nowhere near as graphic as movies of this nature would be today, "Exterminators of the Year 3000" is rated R. It contains violence and gore, profanity, alcohol use by a minor, and frightening and intense scenes. The scene of a young boy downing beer after beer as a pain killer might offend some. One other sequence has our heroes battling mutants that resemble the deformed ones from "Beneath the Planet of the Apes.""Exterminators of the Year 3000" is the perfect film for those who have ran out of "Mad Max" and "Death Race" flicks to watch. It's a B- movie to top all B-movies that conjures up the same tingles and giggles you get when watching anything Roger Corman produced or directed in the 1970s and 1980s. With the release of "Mad Max: Fury Road" so close on the horizon, I can't think of a more fitting time for audiences to enjoy this little known cult classic.

HaemovoreRex Here's one of the numerous Mad Max inspired outings to spring forth from Italy in the early 1980's following the enormous success of that movie and more especially its sequel.Now at this point I have to be honest and state quite plainly that against seeming general public opinion, I absolutely loath the Mad Max trilogy (and there's a fourth entry on the way!) I found the latter two movies especially to be utterly interminable piles of crap.Why then, you might ask, would I view a Mad Max clone? Well the answer is quite simple – the Italian clones are so much more fun!An example of this is the film being reviewed here, which interestingly, though filmed back in 1983 and set in the 31st century, bears a stark warning spookily topical in today's world…..the depletion of the Ozone layer and subsequent global warming.In this nightmarish future, with the seas having dried up and the earth having become a parched desert, water has become an incredibly precious commodity.The story centres around one group of survivors search for a supposed water supply and that armed with a trusty map, they venture to send out a party to retrieve it.However, in this new world gangs of vicious bandits roam the wastelands pillaging and killing as they scavenge for water of their own and it is just one such gang that ambush and brutally murder the search party whilst on route.Only a small boy survives the slaughter (oh and his pet hamster!) to trek on alone.Fortuitously, as our young lad ambles on, he comes across the films hero; well I say hero, but in fact the character is a complete immoral sleazebag! Initially he cons the poor kid out half of his water before buggering off and leaving him! (and all this after the kid actually saved his life to!!!)Still, the lad needs help and in such a desperate situation apparently even a selfish git is better than nothing so he determines to follow the selfish oath.Help from this uncharitable soul is somewhat less than forthcoming however, that is until the boy relays to him that he has knowledge of where a water supply awaits them.Suddenly intrigued our hero opts to aid the lad, but his intentions are far from altruistic for his real aim is to covert all the water for himself and then to sell it to the highest bidder thus becoming rich in the process. But wait…..this is a bit of a plot inconsistency is it not? For we are clearly told that water itself is the most precious thing on the planet now…therefore, what the hell is our hero wanting in return for it? More water?! Money certainly has no value anymore. Perhaps dehydration caused delirium in the selfish swine.Anyway, back to the story…..Needless to say, perils are faced along the way in the form of the same gang that ambushed the initial party subsequently terrorising our protagonists and wouldn't you know it, the leader of the aforementioned gang has a personal grudge against our hero for stealing his beloved souped up car – what a coincidence eh?Throw in some more characters including the always fun to watch Luciano Pigozzi as an ex astronaut and mechanic, a few more plot contrivances such as that our young lad is revealed to possess a bio-mechanical arm and finally in the closing shots an occurrence that can only be described as amounting to a miracle (!!!) and you have a satisfying hour and a half or so of entertainment.This is a rare film nowadays but is well worth tracking down a copy if you can get hold of it.
