Alex: I think it's STAR MASTER or that typing program for the Magnavox Odyssey 2.
This is a classic. Ironically before visiting the page, I bought this from my local movie store for 6.99. Well worth it in my book, what a horribly funny cheese fest it turned out to be, no regrets here.
Im not 100% sure but 99% sure that the video screen on the Einstien is actually taken from the video game STAR MASTER by ACTIVISION for the ATARI 2600, which of course is totally illegal.. what a bunch of donuts.....
I wonder if this wasn't made by the same outfit that created "Puma Man".
Those submachineguns are Berettas, not M3 Grease Guns, and the presence of Pleasance does not bode well. I think this was filmed in Italy.
Something tells me KITT doesn't like talking about his younger counterpart Einstein very much.
So what's the deal with Einstein? Did it have a stutter, or was there an echo in there? Or did it just figure Warrior was so dense it should say everything in triplicate to make sure the message got through? For being so damn smart, it sure overestimated the amount of force needed to subdue Megaweapon- 40 megatons, as opposed to the 5-lb pull on a conveniently located wire harness it actually took?!
My favorite memory of this movie was when it was on MST3000, they didn't know The Warrior's name either, so they kept referring to him as "The Guy From Paper Chase". I remember him more from Black Sheep Squadron, but whatever, it's not much of a resume either way.
I have only three words for this movie: MEGAWEAPON!! MEGAWEAPON!! MEGAWEAPON!!
Oh my god, ya'll! I thought this movie was just some chemically induced hallucination.
That talking motorcycle was too much. I fondly remember it shouting Geeks! Geeks!
However, the rest of the movie is a blur.
One of my favorite guilty pleasure movies. Saw this at a Ma and Pa video store and had to have it.
"Jimmy Carter IS missing in action!"
The MST3K version of the film is pure comedy gold. I love how they have the audacity to actually set this stink burger up for a sequel at the end.
It's still a really fun bad movie, like a lot of Italian films from the same era it plays out like a weird dream. The kind you have when you down a couple bears, three jumbo chili dogs and then fall asleep on the couch.
I know the director for this movie! If you liked this particular Dave Worth masterpiece I suggest you download or rent "Shark Attack III." It's just cinema gold.
Those SMG's aren't Grease Guns. They're definitively Beretta PM12's. Italian, like the movie itself. Italy must have the highest Mad-Max-rip-off-per-habitant ratio on the whole planet :teddyr:
