about

Paulo Luggerizi Jr's follow up to his ultraviolent 1982 trashfest "Street Force" was both unexpected and, some would argue, unwanted. Street Force 2 (1985) signalled Luggerizi Jr's return to action cinema following several years working in the grubby but lucrative world of pornography. The movie was meant to "benefit" from a significantly bigger budget than the original, mostly funded by the director's newly found and highly dubious Bulgarian business links. The production was troubled from the outset with the death of stuntman Bubba Longjohn during a poorly though out burning speedboat chase sequence. Having settled out of court with Longjohn's family for a substantial figure, Luggerizi Jr pushed on with the film describing the incident as a "regrettable and foolish blip on Longjohn's behalf".

His bullish attitude and unrealistic demands continued to cause problems. Indeed, there were further injuries on set and many of the production crew walked out of the project within the first few weeks. With the investors becoming increasingly concerned about the film's spiralling budget, Luggerizi Jr was forced to present a hastily edited montage of what he had shot during the initial 8 weeks of filming. The investors were horrified by the ineptitude of what they saw and sought an immediate repayment of their money. Unsurprisingly, the ever slippery Luggerizi Jr diasppeared the next day with all the footage and the remains of their cash. Needless to say, Luggerizi will not be holidaying in Bulgaria any time soon...

The one remaining artefact from the movie is Repeated Viewing's never before heard soundtrack. Composed prior to the shoot commencing, we will never know how the music included here fitted in with the frankly banal vision of "Il Director" (his words, not mine). Maybe try popping the tape in the deck, closing your eyes and thinking of a burning speedboat.
