At least the art of manscaping is not lost after the apocalypse.

i feel like i'm watching trailers for a feature length prodigy music video...

director of the descent sounds promising though, easily the best survival horro movie i've seen since alien.

looks unwatchable (and supposedly terrible).

@tetracycloide: Agreed. I loved The Decent. My favorite horror movie in a long time.

I still think "Escape From 28 Days After Thunderdome" would have been a better title.

90-pound girl who knows karate goes to Scotland. Kills 10,000 people with her bare hands. Throw in some butt-shots, some 'splosions, and terrible dialogue and you've got a movie. Evidently.

This looks good to me! It's like the battle scenes from Thunderdome for two hours. I'd watch that.

@Hobbity: A movie I will be first in line to see! Woo-hoo! I'll probably have a few drinks before I go!

@extracrispy: Yeah this looks like one of those movies where other peoples complaints about it are my reasons for going.
"Ugh, its just another dystopian future hot chick fights everyone rip-off of 'Mad Max' and 'Escape From NY'"

"YUP! Turning off brain and inserting goofy grin on face and popcorn on lap.. ready!"

I am just so no interested in seeing this...

OMG I am so ready for exploding motorcycles.

Can I be Tom Servo and just say "Warriors... come out and playeeay!" at the beginning and then leave?

As an aside....

Encore cable network is showing the original Mad Max this month. It's not that much different to watch it with Mel Gibson's real voice, but it is most likely a better movie then this one.

I am still going to see this one mind you, but I know it is not going to be as good.

@Fraxinus: Well played sir. well played...

Excellent! There was a shortage of movies to play silently at clubs while rivet-heads and goths writhed to techno-industrial. Oh, happy day!

Whoo! I am there. 28 Days Later was amazing. Mad Max was hysterical. What could be better than combining the two?

This looks like a fucking blast. Am I seriously the only one here who lives within walking distance of a theater that lets you bring your backpack in?

what has start trek done for sci-fi?? made it too bloody intellectual!

brainy this does not scream...i'm so there! wooo!!

I saw a trailer for this during Sarah Connor last night and couldn't believe it had thus far flown under my (and, I thought, io9's) radar. I can't wait! Based solely on my description of the trailer ("It's like this Mad Max post-apocalypse thing"), my dad heartily agreed that he wants to go see it with me.

@SuperUnison: There seem to be two schools of thought on io9, those who want none but "Blade Runner" and "Children of Men" (btw, 2 of the best sci fi has to offer) and those who don't mind getting pissed and watching girls and robots future fight.

And yet I wonder why that as soon as the apocalypse occurs everyone feels the need to go all modern primitive and sport a mohawk.

I'll wait for free per view, thanks.

@Plague: Because the apocolypse is the ultimate spring break. No parents, no boss, no rules. Plus if you see someone in a faux-hawk, unlike in real life, you can murder them.

Is this in Scotland or Sparta (3rd clip, ~12sec)?

"This is OUR city!" == "This is SPARTA!"

Alas, I fear there will be less "magnificent man-titty" (as one female friend phrased it) in this movie, but more mohawks, so it's even.

Mocking aside, I'll watch it.

@tetracycloide: and director of Dog Soldiers. Which was awesome and great, but not exactly good quality.

Just saying, this guy is open to extreme camp. Which I'm looking forward to.

@Garrison Dean:
There go my weekend plans in Silverlake...

@Miranda Kali: DO all goth clubs do that? Mine does. Which one do you go to? I can send them my mix-tape of 1950's b&w horror clips.

@aspiringexpatriate: Dog Soldiers did have the great meta-line "There is no Spoon," so you have to give him credit for that.

+ Watch video

@Garrison Dean: In our house that's known as The "You're Seeing That One Without Me" Divide.

@92BuickLeSabre: Ditto. I get that line whispered in my ear during previews before a movie, as I vibrate with eagerness like a weasel on caffeine and speed.

@Plague: Plague kicks down the door to the 4100 Bar with a rusty makeshift battle axe.

"Faux-hawks on that wall! Men in light beige fabric detailed button down shirts they bought in Russian mob owned shops Melrose east of Fairfax on that wall! Men in both?! FRONT AND CENTER!!! Wake up, Time to Die."

@92BuickLeSabre: @Gomi: One reason my fiancee is my fiancee is that she gets more excited about shit like this than I do. Sometimes to the point where I have to remind her that, "No, I didn't like 'The Covanent'".

@Garrison Dean:
Sounds like you live right down the street from me, GD...

@Plague: Sorry, I probably used to but I moved up to Seattle a year ago. Haven't looked back. I miss good Mexican food, Amoeba, and The Arclight. Next time I'm down visiting I'll let you know, I'll bring my bludgeon and we'll start at El Cid and wade through a tide of hipster blood as we make our way east towards our grand Butch and Sundance finale in Santee Alley.

@Gomi: I just get "that look." No translation necessary.

@Garrison Dean: Impressive.

I've started hunting out SF from other countries so I can sell it as foreign. (Although, after watching Natural City I did actually get an "It's been too long since we last saw Blade Runner.")

OMG. OMG. OMG. Yawn....
Did somebody forget to tell the filmmakers this movie already exists and totally kicks ass?
Why on Earth would anybody pay to see this when they've already got The Road Warrior at home? ON DVD and Blu Ray, no less. Is there such a dearth of ides in science fiction that this is the best they can do? After Children of Men, I expected more from the Brits.
Plus, no Vernon Wells. Fuck that shit.
Maybe they can run a double feature with this and Waterworld on MST.
I'll be home watching Children of Men again, thank you very much.

@Garrison Dean:
Sounds like a plan!
El Cid. Definitely.

@Gomi: that looks like an awesome movie, i will have to watch the rest.

@Gomi: Whenever I hear the radio ads for this film, I think it's a commercial for a re-release or the DVD for Sparta. I am of the firm belief that there is a audio software program that analyzes sound bites/songs that are popular/from hit movies, and then can choose something that sounds like that. Like how "Girlfriend" by Avril Lavigne sounds like "Hey Micky", and "Welcome to the Black Parade" sounds like "We Are the Champions".
