Future-KillThe picture above is by HR Giger – designer of the Aliens in the Alien franchise. He’s a great artist and a lot of movies take his works for movie posters etc. Future-Kill is an example.
The guy on the cover is in the movie and he is the best and only good thing in the movie. He is played by the guy who was the hitchhiker in the real Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Anyway the story is set in the future – a very 80’s future. Where a bunch of teens dress up in glam-rock style clothing and protest nuclear technology. The guy on the poster, Splatter (his birth name?), is second in charge and has suffered first hand experience with nuclear waste. His leader a “non-violent” protestor is always trying to keep Splatter under control. A bunch of frat boys infiltrate the glam-gang in order to play a prank on them…but they find themselves head to head with Splatter. He uses this opportunity to kill his wimpy leader and blames the frat boys. So now they are on the run from the glam-gang.
Basically, it’s a lower budget version of The Warriors. But less creative stuff. Lots of running around and pointless nudity (which is stand for 80s horror). It was a fun to watch with a bunch of guys.
3/5
J-Man.
