    The road warrior is on. Never seen it before so gonna give it a lash.

    Music by Brian may in the opening credits, stoked alreaddy. Anyone else seen it? What did ye think? The opening narration is like something out of fallout.

    Black white opening is a bit creepy but fair atmospheric. Looks liek its set in the desert or something. Bit hard to make out what theyre saying, theres a polish narration over it all.

    The lads chasing him seem a bit mental in fairness. Dunno how safe it is him collecting petrol from the abandoned truck. The stuff drippin out looks fair dirty. Wasnt there a thing about dirty fuel a few years back.

    i like the dog though. that and the gun he has. none of the bahs chasing him are going to mess with that.

    Theres some yoke in it now that was in a james bond film, the one with all the japanese lads attacking the volcano. Its like a little helicopter. Absolute lunatic guarding it though with a crossbow. can you still buy those in Ireland?

    The dirtbikes and other vehicles the baddies have are fair savage though, they're like something out of a film. Loving the spikes and leather. Dunno why the main lad is trying to get down there though, tis like puck fair or race day, nothing great about a big fort from old tyres.

    Hes after ateing some dogfood though which is absolute mank. did it for the crack in college to get a tennar, never again.

    I'd be mad too. Looks like a right nightmare of a spot to be. Some of the ones holed up in the tyre fort made a run for it. Didnt get far. Max (? that his name) or the main lad anywho is after rescuing one of them injured.

    Place looks fierce desolate though. Why they living there when thered be no water or crops to grow? Look at the soil and ye see theres not much there.

    Seems a bit clichey though with the bad lads mostly wearing black and all of these fort people in white. Shows up the dirt anywho.

    It just got weird. Theres some half naked masked man talking to them and a little kid just killed one of the biker boys gf/bf with a metal boomerang that cut off another lads fingers. This film is off the wall altogether.

    Theyre in the tyre foot though ince theyve a loada gas which is probably why the gang of scumbags attacking them want it. Theyre like a buunch of deranged boy racers. Half imagining what the film would look like set in kerry.

    What?

    It is. Black and white intro. Dramatic voiceover, the usual yakking on about the greed o man and how we cause the problems. suitablyy somber for the setting i thought.

    I dunno if he'd have let them go though, he could have just taken the fuel and hunted them down later.
