Plot summary
Ann is seventeen and stands to inherit the Manhattan Corporation, an arms manufacturer. Her eighteenth birthday is coming, and the company she is set to inherit troubles her, so she runs away into the Bronx. The authorities have declared the borough No Man's Land and given up trying to restore law and order there, and the Riders rule the area. A roller-skating gang called the Zombies attacks Ann, and members of the Riders save her. Their leader, Trash, takes her under his protection, and the two fall in love. The Tigers kill a Rider named Chris, and their leader, the Ogre, tells Trash that Chris carried a covert listening device. The Manhattan Corporation hires Hammer, a mercenary, to retrieve Ann.

Did you know?!Facts and trivia about 1990: The Bronx Warriors (1982)
Can contain spoilers, watch the movie first.
- Producer Fabrizio De Angelis got the idea for the film when he missed his subway stop for his Manhattan hotel and ended up in a dangerous Bronx neighborhood, imagining a futuristic city where young hoods would fight for their home.
- Enzo G. Castellari said that three science-fiction films he made with producer Fabrizio De Angelis — 1990: The Bronx Warriors, The New Barbarians and Escape from the Bronx — were written, prepared and filmed in six months.
- While filming, director Enzo G. Castellari changed some of producer Fabrizio De Angelis' plot ideas, including adding more weird gangs such as the roller-skating gang.
- Italian regulations required that 50% of a film had to be shot in Italy, so 1990: The Bronx Warriors was shot on location in the Bronx, with its interiors filmed in Rome.
