About Max and why he goes mad. I was curious about this cult film for a long time. Little did i know that its cult value was derived from tasteless violence and speed fetishism. The dialogue as well as acting is pasty and uninspired. At best, a B-grade revenge drama involving fast cars and bikes, and related crashes and pyromania. It seems loosely inspired by The Clockwork Orange, which is brilliant and wonderfully nuanced by far despite its Ultraviolence. One would expect atleast an expounding of biker culture but this film's wheeler dealers are subhuman morons with a leader who tries pathetically at enigmatism. Don't watch this film unless you enjoy beholding the beauty of the early 80's australian roadways.
