this goes hard - one of my fave 70s sinister sci-fi films. james cann plays a jock/reality tv star that seems to have it all but something’s not right... there’s no wars or countries, there’s a global government and the number one source of entertainment is rollerball - brutal roller derby meets gladiator vibe. if you feel like corporations are sucking the life out of everything yet are inconceivably involved in your daily life - this film takes that to an extreme zone.
the set design and wardrobe is also killer
this year has all the goods. conspiracy, dystopian daydreams, nocturnal noir, and hair salon melodrama
- NIGHT MOVES
- THREE DAYS OF THE CONDOR
- ROLLERBALL
- DEATH RACE 2000
- SHAMPOO
Cyberpunk thriller, 70s style paranoia superimposed on a dystopic y2k backdrop. minidisc macguffin, Juliette Lewis performs at an industrial rave and aphex twin cameos! Very fun watch.
i'm a sucker for anything set in the desert. dylan mcdermott stars in this bizarre b movie thats set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland with a surprise cameo from iggy pop, killer soundtrack too
promotes positivity
pro tip, dreams don’t always make sense - so when weird/bad stuff happens, you can shrug it off and be like wow what a weird dream bro 🤷
