Mad Max

Rev up your Interceptor and get ready for a wild ride across the wasteland as we let loose with the first of our two-part retrospective on MAD MAX! This Australian indie film took the world by storm, becoming a surprise worldwide hit and ushering in a wave of post-apocalyptic knock-offs. While the 1979 original film doesn't much resemble the operatic madness that the series would embrace, it's still an important and captivating thriller overflowing with talent. We're talking about the film before checking out the 1990 NES game adaptation, which may be ahead of it's time in some of its clever (and punishing) ideas. 

Hosted by Steve Guntli, Jennifer "JBan" Bannister, and Justin Wilhelm
