We are coming in hot (think wearing leather pants in the desert hot) for #SCI-FI-JULY Presents: Dystopian Summer 2: Dystopian HARDER. This week, we talk about WHEELS OF FIRE, a nearly New World movie directed by the famous/infamous Cirio H Santiago and starring Gary Watkins (Hunter), Laura Banks (Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan) and Lynda Wiesmeier (Avenging Angel). If you haven't seen WHEELS OF FIRE you should know it's very different from the grossly overlooked action/musical, STREETS OF FIRE, starring Michael Pare and Diane Lane. WHEELS OF FIRE blends everything you loved about MAD MAX and THE ROAD WARRIOR with a pinch of Lucio Fulci's CONQUEST and a heavy dollop of STRYKER. WHEELS OF FIRE takes place in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where shirts are optional, cars blow up at the slightest provocation and some people are trying to build a spaceship to reach a newly discovered planet. Trace and his sister, Arlie, find themselves on a crash course of bad decisions that puts them in harm's way at every turn. Sadly, Arlie gets the worst of it and Trace lacks any sense of urgency to save her. Instead, he and his handy flamethrower blazes across the sandy abyss getting into fights with everyone he meets until he meets Stinger, a young, leather-strapped ingénue with a pet eagle that sounds like a hawk. As you might imagine, one of us is not happy about this. Each of us gives our own Letterboxd description for WHEELS OF FIRE and we spend an inordinate amount of time talking about the Baldwin brothers. More specifically, the brothers that aren't named 'Alec'. Can you name 12 movies off the top of your head starring Stephen Baldwin? We couldn't either.

Comedian and voice actor Jeremy Bent (Comedy Central, Maximum Fun's EUROVANGELISTS) is here to praise MAD MAX 2: THE ROAD WARRIOR (1981), one of the greatest movies ever made, plain and simple.
