Apocalipsis infernal
According to direct testimonies collected from the family of the Mexican filmmaker Christian González, with the actor Leonardo Daniel and with the actress Azela Robinson, this is a film that does not exist and may be is some other film made by the director Christian González but with the title changed by some US film distributor and with the protagonists added to the technical sheet on IMDB without any rigor and without really having acted in it. It could be "Furia de barrio" made in the same year of 1993 by Christian González where Leonardo Daniel and Roberto 'Flaco' Guzmán would have acted together and the photography would have been by Juan Carlos Martín, but Azela Robinson would not have acted in it who never acted in any film directed by Christian González nor did she work in any film with Roberto 'Flaco' Guzmán, as she herself has clarified. If "Furia del barrio" was reissued as "Infernal Apocalypse" more information is required to confirm it.
