Review:
This really was a fun little underground classic that starts out with a bang and manages to keep up the excitement level throughout. The production is actually rather impressively epic and the details, lighting and costumes are quite something too. It's highly stylized and the little cartoonish touches make it seem all the more creative. It's about a bunch of Gangs who have a meeting about uniting, but when someone kills the Head Honcho the blame is wrongly placed on a group called The Warriors. From that point on it's a thrillingly violent mad dash through the other Gang territories (as everybody is looking to kill them). It's pretty neat that a cast of nearly unknowns did such a fantastic job, and well there aren't many Gang films quite like this that is for sure. Definitely worth checking out, it's lots of fun and it seems like the sort of thing I'll be watching again very soon.
