Apparently having only been released on VHS in Japan, Night Realm is pretty darn tough to find these days. While not exactly a lost classic, I'm glad to have finally seen it.
In the future, everyone lives underground because of nuclear fallout or disease or whatever. Unfortunately, we never see any ruined buildings or desert wastelands, which are normally staples of post-apocalyptic cinema. But we do get a lot of over-the-top costumes and cheesy fight scenes as imprisoned women are forced to battle in an arena for the ruler of the realm.
It's less Bloodsport and more Knockouts, with plenty of wardrobe malfunctions to complement the many sex scenes that seem to be the main focus of the film. Night Realm would have been better if it leaned toward Phoenix the Warrior instead of Caged Heat 3000, but I still liked it. Even so, I can't really say it's worth tracking down the extremely rare Japanese tape when other wasteland adventures are much easier to find.
