Taking a while to go one way, and then coming back in no time at all, of course brings back memories of mst3k's 'Lost Continent.' With it's 'Rock climbing!' Ten tedious minutes to get to the top. But when they need to get back down in a hurry it only takes twenty seconds. Favourite movie fashion is the witches in Space Mutiny. Their outfits allow them to do both magic and a workout. All at the same time..
Kudos to Robin for this classic response to the villain saying, "Take off her clothes." "Wouldn't want to miss that," responded Robin. There seems to be a lot of tight-fitting shirts and spandex in many films set in the future, and to be honest, I wouldn't want to see myself in spandex. Therefore, I would probably prefer the most loose-fitting shirts and overalls from Alien (1979). By the way, where is my cool Decker trenchcoat from Blade Runner (1982)? It's after 2019, you know.
Great stuff, thanks! As for fashion statements of the future, I think 'Zardoz' has the edge ....red underpants and thigh length boots was a good look for Sean Connery
If you planned it out correctly you could shoot all of the desert footage in a day or two. And all of the stuff in Baktal's caves also in a day or two. The scenes in the underground city might take three days. If this film took more than two weeks to shoot then somebody was padding the bill.
"How do people just wander into this place?" Maybe it's wearing all white at night when you're being covert. Something in the guard's brains go "No, I couldn't have seen something that stupid...I imagined it"

@@DamnedSilly -- Kenobi's exact line is "Only Imperial stormtroopers are so precise" when speaking to Luke as they examine the destroyed Jawa sandcrawler. While there's plenty of undermining of that praise, Kenobi still gave the aim of stormtroopers quite a bit of regard, and matches what I said earlier.
"Does everyone just wander in to this place?!" 😂😂😂 I like the starched togas of "The Shape of Things to Come", and the cricket-padding clad Space Marines in Alien³; oh, and the uniforms in "Planet of the Vampires" and "Forbidden Planet".
The space suits in "Dark Star" had muffin tins on the front. Starship Troopers mobile infantry uniforms were reused in many, many shows. The majority being Power Rangers and Firefly.
@@cujoedaman The "Elevator" scene in Dark Star makes me giddy with vertigo when I watch it. I know it is a forklift truck carrying a large box driving down a corridor, while Dan O'Bannon lies on a plank; but it really gives me the shivers. The sounds effects are another great feature of that film.
@@euansmith3699 It's a perfect example of how to do a movie right with a low budget. It's a bit spotty here and there, but it's just a fun movie to watch if you don't think about it too much :D
One those great films where, after realizing that there's no plot, no script, no acting, no continuity, etc, you look up the Parents Guide on IMDB to see if there are any goodies to look forward to. Even if there are, you'd still almost rather be sitting at the edge of eternity, gazing into a nihilistic abyss just to get a laugh or two than to plow through that movie.

I'd love to see you do reviews of Narcotic (1933) and She Freak (1967) -- both bad movies in their own right, but with an interesting connection. They both used the real corpse of Elmer McCurdy, a low-level criminal who was killed in 1911. His body was never claimed, and it spent decades being passed around to side-shows, carnivals, and the like. His life-after-death story is really interesting in of itself.
The most tragic futuristic outfit I've ever seen would have to be the King of the Night in ESCAPE FROM GALAXY THREE; some wit dubbed him "Bootsy Vader".
Another one I missed. The '80s was the heyday of post-apocalypse films. I don't care for the post-nuclear rags look. I prefer the Logan's Run type fashion. I think the UFO TV series look is really the way to go.
Any futuristic entertainment that does away with clothes and just have the characters a fair amount of the time, most of the time, or even all of the time naked, is my favourite futuristic 'fashions.'
But the dead problem from the battle could have been easily remedied. The dead get up and it's announced that the radiation cure not only cures radiation, it also brings the dead back to life or more accurately reanimates them. In the sequel, Lou fights the zombie horde. What a missed opportunity.
It's not everyday that a movie is bold enough to ask "what if the human trafficker were the hero and the movie ended with him laughing while hugging the man who sexually assaults women?" That's... one of the movie resolutions of the century.
Years ago, I read Shotaro Ishinomori’s the way of Ryu manga scanlation on a (not quite legal) manga Ebook site. I’m amazed by the drop dead gorgeous setting, inspired by subtropical Okinawan-inspired forests, Jomon period villages, North Indian wildlife, and Rudyard Kipling’s Jungle Books, with a hint of Isaac Asimov’s SF glory. Rather than being a desert as with Mad Max and its competitors, the setting is a jungle book influenced tropical forest which survived a frivolous nuclear war.
bought this movie at the dollar store on bootleg dvd a decade ago - best thing I ever got and lost the disc used to watch it 6 times a week with my friends and laugh our asses off - where's the full film?
Regarding fashion. I love how convenient it is that fashions in 2150 AD were exactly the same as the fashions of the time when Dalek Invasion of Earth 2150 AD was filmed.
Shiny silver.....they're always silver.....suits are all well and good, but I still say you can never go wrong with an itty-bitty loincloth on a strapping, sweaty muscle man. It's a classic.
They some how managed to put every 80's movie trope in this film; almost like watching a Mexican Wrestling movie. Desert Warrior? I guess Warrior of the Gentle Rolling Hills just didn't have the same punch. Wonder how long it took for this thing to end up in the dollar bin at the local video store.
"What sci-fi movies stop the action for long tedious scenes of bureaucracy?" Me: "Oo, oo! (starts to raise han--)...Dammit! Okay, well, 'Dune', then!" 😄
They seem to have "borrowed" the basic premise from "A Boy And His Dog" from '75 and then tried to mix in some Star Wars and MadMax - and failed miserably at all of it! :)
The doctor was shot for two very good reasons. 1- By curing the radiation sickness they lose their reason for keeping everybody else out. Now being that exclusive just looks snobby 2- It was in the script.
Can you review the Bollywood film Adventures of Tarzan? It’s an unofficial Tarzan The Ape Man remake, which is really popular not just with Bollywood fans, but also with Swahili speakers and a couple of bad movie aficionados as well. Its director Babbar Subhash deserves more affectionate international love, as he is still the king of Bollywood films loosely adapted from those of Italian and American schlockmeisters.
How did she not see those guys that found her when she collapsed in the desert? They were literally on top of her in 1 second, and there's no trees to hide behind, it's a DESERT!!! Funny shit...
Not really a movie but an episode of The Twilight Zone featuring Lee Marvin in what would have been then the distant future of 1974. What did they wear in this future version of the mid-1970s? Skinny ties, gray flannel suits and trilby fedoras. Or basically the exact fashion of the early 1960s.
A deaf friend of mine, in his boyhood, got to meet Ferrigno. Lou is apparently a really nice guy in person.

Can confirm he is a nice guy. A lot smaller than I expected.

Karate pajamas, desert ninjas, Lou Ferrigno, and Omni Bot 2000 . Man, this movie has it all.
Don't forget the RPG that doesn't burn up the people behind it with it's exhaust.

"How do people just wander into this place?"
Maybe it's wearing all white at night when you're being covert. Something in the guard's brains go "No, I couldn't have seen something that stupid...I imagined it"
I have to say... the music in this movie... *Stands*.... *Very Slow Clap*... *Slow Clap*... *Clap*... *Uproarious Applaud*!
The outfits in Moon Zero Two set in 2021!
Those are a strong contender. The first time we see the sister character, it looks like she’s wearing a carpet with a hole in it for her face.

That's what made the mighty 80s soo damn great!
the robot was also a character in an israeli t.v.show , in which it was an aid in teaching geography. i'm not surprised seeing it in a canon film.
For future clothes the only correct answer is Zardoz.

Obviously Sir Sean Connery in Zardoz!
Future Force and the sequel, Future Zone most definitely has the best C.O.P.S uniforms, ever.

Trust us when we say there still a lot of crap in the bottom of the barrel.
As for costuming _Zardoz_ is pretty tough to beat, though _America 3000_ gives it a try.

The doctor was shot for two very good reasons.
1- By curing the radiation sickness they lose their reason for keeping everybody else out. Now being that exclusive just looks snobby

If this movie HAD been named "Desert Pimp", I believe it might have made more money. At least on opening weekend.
Thanks!
