Review of Tenement

This is perhaps the highlight of the Roberta Findlay film library. Roberta returns to her South Bronx roots to film on location. A gang who lives in the basement of a large apartment dwelling get ratted out by the super and arrested on charges of gun possession and drugs by cops who don't use cuffs. As the tenets celebrate, our bad guys are out of jail in an hour and return to terrorize the dwellers through rape and killing. With the lone phone line cut, the tenets fight back.

This is semi-Troma style exploitation. 5 stars or 1 star depending on your love for bad films.

F-bomb, sex, rape, impalement, nudity (Corinne Chateau, Karen Russell who was hooker #1 in "American Rampage" and coed #2 in "Dr. Alien." )
