Harry says DOOMSDAY is bugnuts!
On the last day of SXSW – I was depressed… the flu killed SXSW as an experience for me. And once you’ve been spitting up nasty chunks of lung slime – the sorts of films that play SXSW – just isn’t what I needed on that last day.
I wanted to see a movie, but what?
Then RAV popped up on AIM and asked, “Have you seen DOOMSDAY yet?” – To which I responded that my ass has been sick – and he said I should see it cuz it’s ridiculous fun.
From the trailers – I realized this was a film about a virus that spreads like the flu and kills everybody in a zone that’s just cut off from the world and they have to send a hot chick to see if there’s a cure.
Well – a deadly hot zone flu virus is what I just had – and crazy Mohawk customized car maniacs… well, that’s the sort of movie you call your dad up to go see. After all… we’re in the 21st Century and we’re not quite at the kill other motorists for the gas in their car’s gas tank stage just yet, but dammit… it’s been a long god damn time since we’ve had that type of movie … besides – I’d get to see the HULK trailer on the big screen.
So on the final day of SXSW, instead of high-minded movies – I decided that I would go see… DOOMSDAY.
DOOMSDAY is a spicy salsa construction where the tomato is ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, the jalapeno is ROAD WARRIOR, the onion is 28 DAYS LATER and the lime juice is OUTBREAK. Neil Marshall blended all of that up and came up with DOOMSDAY. A really insane film that doesn’t, at all, feel like a movie from 2008, but some film that would have come on as the third film on a Drive-In triple feature in about 1985.
This is Neil Marshall channeling Enzo Castellari. And I kind of fucking love the insanity that it produces. With DOG SOLDIERS and THE DESCENT – Neil played it fairly straight. Shit was intense, but it kinda seemed like our universe. Only with werewolves and cave creeps.
Here – I just don’t think our world would turn into cannibalistic punk lunacy in 20 years. I mean – is the current government all that stands between us and cannibalism and horrifying hair styles? 20 years of non-supervision will result in us adding spikes and bones to our cars. And apparently cooking people – badly – and eating them… without seasoning.
Now sure – you might be like me and waiting for Bush to completely end government – and counting down to cooking one of the neighbor children to see if kid meat is sweet. But I think general societal madness would take a little bit something more. Not only that – but I feel if isolated – humanity would reorganize and self-govern… to avert eating the kids.
This film is bugnuts! Off the wall bugnuts! It is an absurdly insane film that is in love with the lunatic films of the 80s. There’s even a bit of KNIGHTRIDERS in this film and man… I love that.
DOOMSDAY is by no means a great film or even a good film. It’s fast and loose with logic and as the film continues it gets crazier and crazier. The last shot is one of those, WHAT THE FUCK – WHY moments that just makes you giggle or scream or giggle and scream. It makes no fucking sense at all.
The film just is bugnuts.
And when was the last time you saw a genuine bugnuts film from a major studio? A film where they blow up bunnies? A film with gleeful decapitation and rampant happy cannibalism?
If you love SUICIDEGIRLS.Com – you’ll dig this film a little more than the average joe or jane. But for me – it’s a bit of a love hate relationship.
Sure, I’d fuck it – but I also want to put it in a shallow grave – so I can dig it back up and fuck it later. It’s a mess – and just like your bedroom – you’ll know where all the trash came from. Cuz all the 80s toys were brought out and fucked with to make this trash heap – and I think that’s why I got the kick out of it that I did. But I’ll be goddamned if I can figure out what Bob Hoskins, Alexander Siddig and Malcolm McDowell are doing in this. Cuz they had to be bugnuts too.

First and no its not bugnuts its really shitty but instead of telling you that Harry thought he would confuse you by saying bugnuts repatedly
-
Bugnuts.
-
The whole fuck it and put it in a shallow grave so you could dig it back up later and fuck it again is insanely creepy and crazy.Other than that, keep up the good work!
-
this movie BLLLOOOOWWWWSSS bugnuts. Definetly disappointing, ecspecially since the director was the man behind The Descent.And Dog Soldiers is blown way at of proportion too.
-
Nothing like fucking white trash, punk rock, emotastic, tattooed girls that look like they are 12 years old. This is a good thing mind you.
Sounds like a shitty good little movie. -
AWEFUL review. But at the same time, despite the lapses of logic, and you not really saying anything constructive one way or another, and despite the fact that I dont even know if you would recommend going to see this - I kind of liked it.
-
WTF, Harry?! Is she hotter than ever in this film choppin' fools up and rollin' heads?
-
Mix various good films into one giant shit ball and call it you own..
I still want too see this one though. Even though It doesn't seem to have one single original idea in play. Will wait for bootleg.. -
You never felt BAD about seeing a trashy flick at a drive in! You reveled in it and ate up that bad pizza, awesome popcorn and watched the kitties and puppies (and maybe a show about train safety) before the next 'showtime'. My favorite double feature was CLASH OF THE TITANS and TRON. That was an awesome night!
-
NOTHING original about it. Trying to defend it as homage is futile. It is never as good as the movies it tries to be. Not even close. OK, the gore is well done... other than that? Nothing here to like, at all.
-
I re-read that thing about five times, and I'm still not sure what Harry was driving at... is there something wrong with me? What did he mean...?
But I do wish Harry would stop talking about politics... it's painfully obvious how little he knows or understands the subject, its embarrassing... and a bit jarring. Don't we get enough of Hollywood trying to influence political though that we don't need watered-down, third-hand borrowed opinions? He can say what he wants, its his site... but its a little off putting...

Must be.

So maybe they are bugnuts as well.
-
Idiotic, but crazy. I'll pick up low budget insantity with DTV flicks, so why complain about a $30 million dollar DTV flick? It's tasty filler.
-
Seriously. This character that you're playing, Harry Knowles the overly giddy big kid who gets to play in the Hollywood sandbox, it's really getting old. And I'm sure on some level it's a part of you, maybe even a big part. But the things you say are getting absolutely incomprehensible and after like 90 stories worth of it it's a bit much. You are after all an adult, and you seem like a pretty smart guy so I doubt that you are anything less than self aware of the image you perpetrate. On that level it seems like you're doing a bit of posing. The catch phrase induced reviews....posing. The always giddy at a level of 10 no matter what attitude...posing. One of two things here is true, either you're doing it on purpose, or you care so little about film that you can't even be bothered to take it the least bit seriously. You used to be passionate about cinema, now it seems the only thing you're passionate about is being passionate as you just fire your exuberance randomly at whatever is in the crosshairs at any given time. And yeah I know it's a review for a fucking Neil Marshall film, but I'm talking in general. This review could literally be about any genre film. Cause even know the film is "bugnuts", you seem to think so little about it that you can write a page long review and never once say anything even remotely relevant. All I can assume is that you really and truly don't fucking care other than you respect it's existence as a studio film. And man if that's the best you can come up with then just spare us the frivolity.

cooking one of the neighbor children to see if kid meat is sweet
by tough_times
Is that what the pedos are calling it hese days? Quotes out of context can be fun.
-
This movie wanted to be hot shit on a silver platter, but it's merely a cold turd on a paper plate. The only good thing about it was Rhona Mitra's spendid ass. If I could combine that ass, Carla Gugino's tits...
Pardon me while I fetch a box of Kleenex and some lubricant... -
how would YOU cook them Harry?
-
...in ANYTHING is better than Bob Hoskins, Alexander Siddig and Malcolm McDowell in nothing. Sounds like pretty much what I expected from the previews, other than the extreme 80's riffage. Still not sure this is something I can pay for in the theater, but you just convinced me to check it when it's released on DVD.
-
...what IndustryKiller! is sayin'. I've learned to pull the info I need from most of your reviews, but they do still sometimes make hidden parts of my grey matter ache. Really though, you just need to use more commas, dude.
-
This better be half decent.
-
Genious. I´m sold.
-
was that the film is bugnuts (whatever the fuck that is) and Harry enjoys digging up fresh dead people to violate.
Even when Harry doesn't like a film now, he can't give it a nasty review. Grow some balls back you fat mess of a man - your site used to be the best but now it's just a watered down parody of itself. -
that for once, I completely agree with everything IndustryKiller said! This wasn't a review by some well-known flim critic - it was just another worthless internet rant by some bloated, tracksuit wearing human-dildo who believes people come to this site for him and not just the latest movie news.
-
The man did The Descent which is easily the fuckin best horror movie in the last decade BAR NONE
-
Film criticism on a par with Pauline Kael
-
I love how this review just devolves into necrophilia. "So basically, I would hit that, alive or not." you should just rate everything like that, Harry. Would you fuck it dead or leave it in peace?
-
Now why did Neil waste all that money on sets and explosions when he could just have made 'SuicideGirls - The Movie'? Ninety minutes of tattooed cuties taking their tops off. I'd buy that for a dollar!
-
...is the once and future Lara Croft. The original and still the best. Angelina who?
-
They've been fucked and killed already. Then fucked again!
-
"DOOMSDAY is a spicy salsa construction where the tomato is ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, the jalapeno is ROAD WARRIOR, the onion is 28 DAYS LATER and the lime juice is OUTBREAK."
Not bad. -
Do not waste your time..... please..
-
and what ever he fucks would defiantly have to do all the work. -
I had a hard time believing this could be a movie by the same dude who did Dog Soldiers and The Descent. The impression I got from the trailer was: "If movies were people, this is what you'd get if Escape From New York violently sodomized The Road Warrior, and then 28 Days Later came along and felched the load out of Road Warrior's ass and spat it into the yeasty snatch of any of those shitfest tough chick flicks from the last decade like Resident Evil, Ultraviolet, Underworld, Aeon Flux or whatever, and the snowballed goo actually started to grow, but was born premature into a mongoloid monstrosity that burst from the womb in a horrifying Alien-like explosion." And when I SAW the movie, I had to amend my opinion. This piece of shit wasn't built from the genetic material of movies like Escape from New York, The Road Warrior, and 28 Days Later; it was spawned by an incestuous dogpile of the retarded, inbred cousins of those movies. To borrow a line from Futurama: It was so terrible I think it gave me cancer.

I love it Harry, pushin the review bad taste envelope
by nomoredirtyjokespleaseweareyanks
That ending came out of nowhere and cracked me up. I tip my hat to you.
-
...any criticism leveled at this film about the fact that it flagrantly steals from other sources. Tarantino has made an entire career out of even more literal thefts. If you do it well, like he does, and like this appears to, its all good. Like someone else up there pointed out, this looks less like an amalgamation of American 80's trash and more like an amalgamation of 80's italian trash ripping off 80s American trash. I think this might be the first Neil Marshall film I'll go out of my way to catch.
-
9 Months later the Worlds Largest Shit Baby is born... It grows up to Review Reviewer's.
-
Stay at home and watch movies.
I am a germ phobe. -
Sounds pretty much as I'd expected/hoped it to be, dumb retro fun. Deffo going to check it out at the mulitiplex.
-
(SPOILERS)
I was into this in the beginning, but once they hit Medieval Times theme park, it was just idiotic and incredibly stupid. The scene toward the end with Saul and his minions chasing Mitra was an insult to Road Warrior - a cheap carbon copy of that brilliant film, complete with mohawk idiot screaming and slave tied to front of car. I guess that was the intent, but it rang so hollow.
You'll forget this movie as soon as the credits roll. Although Rhona Mitra was certainly a saving grace. She's got a future. -
Or not.This is clearly a rental that one should enjoy for its outrageousness and lack of common sense.
-
like "Chocolat covered pussy juice" or in this case "bugnuts", and then searches for a movie to review. Because eventually it doesn't matter what he reviews, but controversy in TB is very important. It keeps AICN alive. Fuck you, Harry.
-
If you tell me she gets naked fighting said mohawked canibalistic bugnuts psychos, I'm sold.
-
What's not to love?
-
Just thought I'd give a dissenting opinion. I saw the $6.00 matinee of this on Saturday and I would say that I got at least $6.00 of entertainment out of it. I remember in the 80's when video stores were just starting out. It seemed as if the entire Action section of my local video store back then was filled with every Road Warrior rippoff ever made. And as a young lad of 13, I think I watched all of them one summer. Were they what one would consider "good"? Fuck, no. But they were entertaining, and I had a blast watching them. Doomsday seems, to me, like a combination of all of those riduclous movies mashed into one, then given a 30 Million dollar budget. It's great fun, stupid, but fun! And if after watching the trailer for this movie, you expect it to be anything but stupid fun, then please seek help. Of course it's derivitive, of course it's mindless. Did you really think that Neil Marshall said "I've got an idea that nobody has thought of before, ever, and it's going to make people think long and hard about man's cruelity to man." Of course not. He made a movie that was supposed to be dumb fun and just enough outside of the mainstream of stupid modern action movies (Jason Statham, I'm looking at you!) to feel like a different experience than you usually will find in your local gogolplex. Now if had seen it on a Saturday night and paid $12.00, I might not have enjoyed it as much, but it was $6.00 worth of fun.
-
"you might be like me... ...and counting down to cooking one of the neighbor children to see if kid meat is sweet.""I’d fuck it – but I also want to put it in a shallow grave – so I can dig it back up and fuck it later."Where does this stuff even come from? And do I go see the movie or not?All I got from your review is:(1.)This movie is bugnuts (2.)You hate Bush (3.)Doomsday is like salsa, a corpse, and your room.What the hell are you talking about?!?
-
wasn't funny the first time, and bugnuts is just plain dumb, but the "Kick You in the Nuts & Eat our Your Girlfriend" Oh that's fucking Classic! Harry has Neil Cumpston Envy.. Cumpston needs to ditch this place and start his own review site. Called it the "Cumstain Review" hosted by Neil Cumpston.

but damn its fun.

how is this movie so unpopular on this site? I thought it was fucking amazing. It wasn't tongue-in-cheek-- it was funny. It threw you curves that made sense when you think about them (the knights, for example, were there for a reason and to make a point-- not because Marshall was like 'hey you know what would be hilarious now? Knights!') It gets you to expect an explosion and then does something else entirely. It uses models instead of CGI. It has the most creative violence this side of Nicotero.And most importantly, it is overflowing with the kind of exuberant filmmaking only someone who actually loves making movies can translate to the screen, which is pretty fucking rare these days. Don't listen to these shitheads... listen to this shithead and check it out.
-
However Rhona Mitra's salad deserves to be tossed. hhm, Ranch dressing or Vingrette?
-
I agree it's lame when Harry channels Neil in his reviews but Neil's own stuff is equally fucking stupid. I'll never get why people think this shit is funny.
-
Escape from New York meets The Road Warrior. If that has any appeal to you, see it before its out of theatres.
-
barely any
-
A Harry review is going to make me physically ill. This movie looks retarded.
-
Horribly shot fight scenes. Couldn't even figure out what was going on. Poorly staged car chase. And a waste of David O'Hara, who's a badass. Watch 'Escape From the Bronx' or 'Futurekill' or something instead.
-
Disgusting Bodily Fluid Reference? CHECK
Food reference? CHECK
Deviant Sexual Reference for Shock Value? CHECK
Made-Up descriptive word, oft repeated? CHECK (bugnuts = 4 times)
Little to nothing about the movie itself? CHECK
Attempt to channel Neil Cupmston? CHECK
Not impressing a single other person? DOUBLE CHECK
These reviews are why this site blows now. This kind of review might have been cool when Harry was a punk kid spying his way into closed sets and such, but as a grown, adult man - this kind of juvenile junk is just creepy. No wonder the industry is moving on to other sites. This one has too much of that 'creepy old man' vibe now. Best thing that could happen here is if Harry left it to Moriarty.
-
Plust its got the Hulk Trailer, I'm in
-
I'm glad I picked up an HD copy of Road Warrior on the cheap at Best Buy for $8. I'll wait till this ends up on the 99 cent rental list at my local Eye On Video. As Harry admits, its not even good. And this coming from the man who creamed all over Hatchet.....
-
You are a boring person. This movie was so funny and fun. Its just a fucking good man movie. Who cares of the plot makes sense? This movie wasn't made to make sense. Fucking this is the sort of movie that makes going to the movies fun. Fucking go, sneek in a few beers and have a blast. If you can't enjoy this sort of movie, thats well done, bat shit crazy, that hot british chick, seeing a dude punched in the face they you sir are not a man. PotSmokinAlien is 100% in what he says. And who cares if Harrys review is childish, his reviews are at least fun to read. It just shows he got the movie. That said between this and Rambo, 300 looks like a bitch, yet again 08 kicking 07s ass.

I can't believe I got pulled into seeing this. - It sucked.
by jdanielp
And it was a huge disappointment after having seen Neil Marshall's DOG SOLDIERS and THE DESCENT. Personally, having witnessed his previous efforts, I saw something in Marshall's talent that reminded me of a young James Cameron. But I did not see ANY OF THAT TALENT in DOOMSDAY. It felt more like a flick that was rushed together without ANY forethought. It just felt like everyone showed up and the director was like, "Let's try this idea." Terrible movie. I'd give it half a star out of five. And to Neil Marshall, "What the hell were you thinking???"
-
Ummmm... folks. The whole idea of the movie was to rip of classics of b movies and have fun with it. And that's exactly what he did. The movie was a blast. I particularly loved the one scene which was an exact duplicate of a scene from "The Warriors". Does anybody know which one?
-
Nothing more, nothing less.
-
Yup, you heard me. Now fuck off.
-
Series7: thanks brother man. glad somebody else saw the same movie i did.Everyone else: I'm gonna go one step further out on the limb i didn't even know i was on and say this movie, as well as being fucking amazing, is *not* dumb at all. It is the opposite of dumb. Pulling ideas out of your ass gives you a movie like Transformers, not like this. Doomsday has its source material, sure, but the punks and the knights are more than some random idea or an homage-- they show the two directions a society goes in when confronted with a real end-of-everything crisis. On the one hand you got total anarchy and chaos with Sol and the punks, on the other hand you got Luddite xenophobia and a return to conservative values with Dr Cain and the medieval enclave. But don't forget that Dr Cain and Sol are father and son; could it maybe possibly ya think be that the movie is suggesting these two philosophies are really two sides of the same coin? (Yes, is the answer) Now are those ideas taken to an over-the-top extreme and draped over a shitload of violence and action? You bet your fucking ass they are-- Marshall wants it to be a fun ride, after all. But to call it dumb is to betray yourself as dumb.If you gotta insist this thing is nothing more than an homage, well then it is as much an homage to the history and culture of the UK as it is an homage to Road Warrior. And for the record, I've never seen Marshall's previous 2 movies and i still dug the living shit out of this one.
-
Enjoyed the hell outta this film. It's reminded me of those earlier issues of Heavy Metal magazine back when Corben, Druillet and Moebius worked on it. Much better Grindhouse film than Grindhouse! Noahtall, the homage to the Warriors was the chase scene with the Turnbull ACs.
-
I don't get the cumpston comparison. He goes for the laugh at all (filthy) costs. Harry just really knows how to write about trashy film. If you didn't get a solid impression of what to expect from this film, you might be illiterate, or skipping every other word. That last paragraph was some brilliant writing. A perfect little metaphor that exists not just to sound clever, but to give potential audiences a real feel for what to expect.

I'd rather pay my $ 8.50 to see a movie that's a little bit of this, and a little bit of that with a dash of whatever than a remake of an Asian horror movie or a movie that originally came out less then 20 years ago.
Hollywood here's your next concept. Take a little bit of Ghostbusters cross it with Pulp Fiction add a little Evil Dead 2 and then stick that in a blender with The Breakfast Club. And get back to me. -
Has anyone seen any of this years 8 films to die for that are out on video this week? Need a good scary rental tonight.

'Bugnuts' is how Harry says 'Dogshit' when dealing with friends
by topaz4206
Still love ya Red, but I get the *wink* in this review -- it says... "WAIT FOR VIDEO!"
-
Would explain a lot of those reviews really. -
2 FUCKING MONTHS before Britain. What the fuck were you thinking Neill?
-
proper gentleman around the Misses, yes dear...no dear.., and has to let it rip, flavored pussy juices and all, in his reviews...
-
if any of you fucking hypocrites are bagging this (you know who you are) for lifting from other sources I hope you despise Tarantino, Roth and all the remake artists around.
-
Harry, does your wife read any of your reviews, and still agrees to sleep at your side??
-
Because Harry, at least with The fucking Outlaw VERN, you can tell if he liked a movie or not.
-
Now if Neil Marshall was Harry's best buddy, this probably would have gotten a better review.
Probably. -
I realize that Neil Cumpston is not real and somewhat formulaic ... but you can call him not funny all you want ... that doesn't make his shit any less funnier.
Well, his early stuff. Later NC is sort of like Fat Elvis ... kinda funny but a pale shadow of teh good stuff. -
damn dyslexia...
-
Much better.
-
Can't someone take this site away from Harry and give it to someone like Moriarty. Harrys Reviews are obviously useless and e isn't able to do interviews or go to set-visits because he is too fat. All he does is posting news that someone send him per email or other sites published days ago. END IT before its too late.
-
"Sure, I’d fuck it – but I also want to put it in a shallow grave – so I can dig it back up and fuck it later."
Your wife should file a restraining order. -
Rename the site!
-
I thought it was good. More precisely, it was bad in really wonderful ways. However, my son (18) thought it was ridiculous. I think you should love this movie if you're a child of the 80s. If you came afterwards (or are a girl, of course), you'll hate it.
-
You'll be sorry when he accidentally fires a missile across the flight deck and sets America on fire.
-
And does not pretend to be anything but an utterly retarded Mad Max throwback. So anyone walking into the theatre expecting anything other than a silly, absurd 80s nostalgia film only has themselves to blame.
-
...but with men attached instead of bugs.
-
The idea of walling off Scotland is a joke that people over here will latch onto on both sides of the border... Basically its one hell of a tip-off that this movie isn't taking itself at all seriously. Just as well as this is hardly a megabuck pic, $30mil is a decent budget for Marshall, but its piss-all for studio product.
-
Oh wait, coz she's a quarter Indian. She also looks like Spitzer's "Kristen". Wonder how much she would charge for a night?
-
Are they infected, too?
-
It definately wasn't a great movie but I was extremely entertained. Nothing more, nothing less.
-
shit?!
-
it might be worth renting if you talk your girlfriend into paying for it. if you're like me and you don't have one it might be worth downloading so you have something to take the place of crying in bed.
-
Ot, at the least, a lot mor fun to watch.
-
And you wonder why so many question your taste in movies!?
Dog soldiers was shit, The Decent was quite well done but i won't even bother with this shit heap no matter how Bugnuts it is whatever the fuck that means!? -
Ot, at the least, a lot mor fun to watch
-
i honestly thought that this was a sequel for 28 weeks later and this movie would take place 28 years later. Boy was I wrong
-
and didn't like it without seeing a commercial or a trailer, then I forgive you for not liking it. But you retards who saw DOOMSDAY after seeing a trailer or commercial and were SURPRISED that you didn't like it are just that: BLISSFULLY RETARDED. You eat your own shit.
-
Mar 19, 2008 10:59:34 PM CDT
Liked this movie, even though it was a huge step down from Desce
by tallboy66
But Harry kind of nailed it. This movie is on crack. It keeps making these insane left turns in the plot every 15 minutes that makes a new movie every little while, so it was pretty entertaining, at least.
-
Just look on the internet if you really want to know where. I drive up to an hour to see a good double feature at the drive-in. In your car you are free to smoke if you want, and can bring your own food. I just wish they'd get that regardless of what time the sun is -supposed- to be setting, don't start the friggin movie until it's dark outside. I hate missing the first half-hour of a dark movie like LXG.
-
Sure Tarantino ripped off other Movies for source material (Lady Snowblood=Kill Bill) but it's his dialog that shines.So to some degree he gets a pass. Doomsday looks too uninspired as it has way too many influences:EFNY,28 Days later,THe warriors and especially the Mad Max stuff.I'll wait till this shit comes out on DVD for rental.
-
OOPS!..oh wait no it was'nt..it was a rippoff of Ghost in the Shell, Terminator and some fictional Novel written by a woman.Gloria...washername?

I think you meant Spiderman 3 is better than typos. Regardless of what you meant, you're wrong.
-
I really don't give a rat's ass what any of you think, but goddammit Spidey 3 is my homeboy. I would equate it to the Lost World; it was great when there was no dancing or crying on frame. Unfortunately, taking that into consideration, it only is about 45% great, but it's pretty irrelevant to really complain at this point. During its good moments, Spidey 3 actually resembled something masterful, while shitfests like FF4 and especially Batman & Robin maintained its stupidity throughout the entire two hours, leaving no semblances of good movie in their wake whatsoever.

Neil Marshall is not a great film director, but he's got just enough 'joi de morte' to pull DOOMSDAY off and make the audience leave the cinema chuckling....The dialogue is DREADFUL, the dramatic direction LEADEN, the costumes DERIVATIVE....etc etc, with lots more capital letters....BUT: somewhere along the line, i started to enjoy this movie....a total mess, and all kinda stapled together out of used parts, but with enough panache to convince you that Marshall had his tongue firmly ensconced in his cheek...see this film stoned or slightly drunk....see this film with friends who know ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, BRONX WARRIORS, MAD MAX, NEW BARBARIANS.....see it on dvd....do whatever...jsut don't take it seriously...and feel slightly worried about the once-promising director of DOG SOLDIERS and THE DESCENT....where to now Neil?...tread carefully.....

Anybody remember a small movie from the 80's called "Escape from New York"?
This movie ripped off so many ideas from it, it should be considered an updated remake! -
No fucking shit.
