Ator Returns

 

 (imdb)

CAVE DWELLERS-1984-In from this sequel to ATOR, an alchemist Akronas (Charles Borromel) tells his daughter Mila (Lisa Foster) about the warrior Ator (flashbacks from the first movie). He sends her on a quest to find him. On her way, she fights some soldiers and is shot with an arrow. She finds Ator (Miles O'Keefe) and his mentor Thong (Kiro Wehara). After she proves who she is, she convinces Ator to help her dad. The three head back for the castle. After Ator and Throng fight invisible beings, Mila is taken prisoner by cave people but the Ator saves her. The villain is Zor (David Cain Houghton), a very unintentionally funny long-haired guy who sounds like “The Master” from MANOS, HANDS OF FATE at times! Ator is betrayed by his hometown and nearly sacrificed. He even hang-glides. For some reason there's an atomic explosion at the end. 

Director Joe D'Amato (real name Aristide Masaccesi) hid behind the pseudonym David Hills for this as he did on Part 1. CAVE DWELLERS is the TV version of ATOR 2: THE INVINICBLE (aka THE BLADE MASTER) presented by Film Ventures with scenes from another movie shown during the credits.

Emanuelle and Cannibals

 

 (themoviedatabase.org)

EMANUELLE AND THE LAST CANNIBALS-1977-At a mental institution, a patient bites a nurse. Emanuelle (Laura Gemser), doing some investigative reporting, visits the now straitjacketed woman. She discovers the mad woman has a tattoo from a tribe in the Amazon jungle. Her editor wants her to go there and get the story on the last cannibal tribe. She contacts anthropologist Mark Lester (Gemser's real life husband at the time Gabriele Tinti). After they have sex, he agrees to lead an expedition. 

After arriving, they meet Isabelle (Monica Zanchi), a reporter. She joins them along with a nun. When Emanuelle is attacked by a snake, hunter Donald McKenzie (Donald O'Brien; DOCTOR BUTCHER MD) shows up and shoots it. Then he, his wife (Susan Scott) and their guide join up. They wander around being unknowingly watched by the locals. After the nun is cannibalized, McKenzie and his wife go off to get diamonds from a helicopter crash (their real reason for being there). The natives attack, wound McKenzie and kidnap his wife.

Later Isabelle. Emanuelle and Lester watch from afar as the wife is cannibalized and McKenzie is squeezed in half. 

To save Isabelle, Emanuelle poses as a goddess.

This starts out as a typical soft-core porn, that turns into a pretty disgusting display of the Italian cannibal genre at its worst. This was the fourth “Black Emanuelle” movie director Joe D'Amato (born Aristide Massaccesi) made, followed by several more in the series. He later made ANTROPOPHAGUS (1980) and its sequel ABSURD (1981) and many others.

Revoke Her Visa!

EMANUELLE IN AMERICA-1977-Low budget sex-oriented junk with fashion photographer Emanuelle (Laura Gemser) getting involved with a white slavery ring and snuff films while taking off her clothes at the drop of a hat. As usual Gemser's then husband Gabrielle Tinti co-stars. Pretty badly made, this Italian production was directed by Joe D'Amato (ANTROPOPHAGUS (1980), ABSURD (1981) and many other titles with the name Emanuelle in them).
