WTF was that? I watched the first few minutes of this awful film then I had to watch the rest in fast-forward just to see what others are talking about. They are most correct! This film "borrows" very heavily from some of the greatest films of the time era: It really does open up with the look and feel of The Road Warrior/Mad Max but the dude looks similar to and acts like Chuck Norris not Mel Gibson. I swear the is a "glimpse" of Star Wars in the background car chase looking like Tatooine and when he grabbed the spearhead it reminded me of Conan for a second or two. Keep fast-forwarding then I see Bruce Li (not LEE) doing some Kung-Fu fighting. Then it looks to be "borrowing" from Raiders of the Lost Ark then on into Rambo/Romancing the Stone in the jungle. Next we have pygmies and Amazon Women! Lots of guns firing off, car chases and crashes, explosions yep this is stereotypical 1980s action film trash that is a wannabe good action film but it falls very far away from good into the crappy category with all of it's very cheap wannabe ripoff sets, action, costumes etc... an awful film to my tastebuds.1/10

Jungle adventure? Time travel sci-fi? Post-apocalyptic action? Chop socky flick?: sometimes it's hard to decide precisely what kind of trash to watch! The answer to this dilemma... Future Hunters, Cirio H. Santiago's crazy crap-fest that mixes several genres and rips off a fair few better known films, but still manages to be a hugely entertaining one-of-a-kind experience.The film opens with some Mad Max-style action, hunky wasteland warrior of the future Matthew (Richard Norton) blowing up an assortment of evil leather clad punks in his quest to find the Spear of Longinus, which, when placed on the original staff, has the power to save mankind. Upon finding this powerful treasure, Matthew is thrown back in time to 1986 where he is fatally wounded saving sexy blonde amateur archaeologist Michelle (Linda Carol) and her ex-marine boyfriend Slade (a young Robert Patrick) from some nasty bikers.Before he carks it, Matthew entrusts the spearhead to Michelle and Slade, telling them to give it to a Professor Hightower, who will know what to do with it. The pair's search for the professor takes them all over the world, pitting them against power hungry Nazis, a deadly martial arts master, a bloodthirsty Mongol army, and a tribe of savage female warriors who guard The Venus Valley, the location of the spear staff.As well as Mad Max, Santiago borrows from Raiders of the Lost Ark (Nazi's in search of an ancient religious relic), The Terminator (hero travels back in time to before the nuclear holocaust), Romancing the Stone (couple stranded in jungle), and even Return of the Jedi, a tribe of friendly native midgets helping out in a scene clearly inspired by the Ewoks battle on Endor.It is, of course, extremely cheap and cheezy, with wooden acting and poor special effects galore, but it sure is fun, the best bits being one hell of a kung fu showdown between Hwang Jang Lee and Bruce Le (with Patrick throwing a few punches but getting his ass whooped) and a fight to the death over a crocodile pit between Michelle and an Amazonian woman.7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.

Cheerfully plumbing depths of giddy stupidity with a certain infectious go-for-it wacky aplomb, this is by no means a good movie, but it sure is a highly entertaining and often unintentionally sidesplitting piece of energetic kitsch. Tough Mad Max clone Matthew (Richard Norton in peak two-fisted form) discovers the location of the Spear of Destiny -- it's the Roman spear that was used on Christ during his crucifixion -- in the bleak apocalyptic world of 2025. Matthew travels back to 1986 and gives the spear to Michelle (foxy blonde Linda Carol) and her boyfriend Slade (Robert Patrick in his pre-"Terminator 2" Grade Z dreck salad days). It's up to our young couple to make sure that the spear doesn't fall into the wrong evil hands. Director Cirio H. Santiago, working from a blithely inane script by J. Lee Thompson, keeps the pace racing along at a constant speedy clip and treats the ridiculous premise with gut-busting misguided seriousness, thereby ensuring that this honey is a total tacky hoot from start to finish. Better still, Santiago and Thompson cram this baby with all kinds of deliciously absurd lunacy: We've got a nasty biker gang, wild car chases (keep your eyes peeled for an incredible day for night continuity error during one particular chase), fierce karate fights, solemn opening narration by a third-rate Orson Welles clone, a tribe of helpful cave-dwelling dwarfs, nefarious Nazi bad guys (Ed Crick hams it up outrageously as the leader of the Nazis), lots of stuff blowing up real good, cruddy (not so) special effects, and even a group of fearsome Amazon warrior women. Extra kudos are also in order for the extremely bouncy pulse-pounding score by Ron Jones and a smidgen of tasty gratuitous female nudity courtesy of the yummy Mrs. Carol. A real schlocky blast.

It is hard to explain what was going through the director's mind when making a classic such as Future Hunters, but I have to admit it was pure genius because not only was this film amazingly a classic, but it had midgets, a big oaf nazi, and the best a night to day chase. I give this movie a A+, and want to thank Joe Bob for playing such a classic film, and keep on playing more like it.So if you haven't seen this movie really consider checking it out, it's a movie with so many bizarre twists and plot jumps, and not to mention characters coming out of nowhere, and a group of dwarfs beating a nazi soldier to death, so rent it or just better off buying it.
