Has aged much better than most overly stylized '80s apocalyptic flicks, and I'll blaspheme by saying I liked it more than De Jarnatt's highly-lauded follow-up. Its aesthetic is as if Terry Gilliam fucked "Liquid Sky," but the result is freewheeling, fast-paced, and absurdly humorous. Melanie Griffith is all sorts of awesome, and Tim Thomerson is scary-funny-scary as a maniacal cult leader. Now to watch "Tank Girl" to complete the obvious double feature...

What does anything have to do with anything?

Still underrated. Still chilling as hell. And still better than HALLOWEEN by leaps and bounds. And Margot Kidder gives possibly her best performance ever.

Retire already, Wes.
