MAD MAX (1979)
Certification18 Our Rating
The last of the V8 interceptors takes to the road for the first time. Urban society is in terminal decay and the roads have become an arena for a strange death game between nomadic bikers and young cops in souped up pursuit cars. Less futuristic than the sequels but disturbingly bleak and violent.

The enigma of the planet's history, juggled through Heston's humiliating experience of being studied as an interesting laboratory specimen by his ape captors, right down to his final startling rediscovery of civilisation, is quite beautifully sustained.
