Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior

We take a break from Mike White May with the second in a series of bonus episodes leading up to the release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga with a look at the second film in the original trilogy Mad Max 2: Road Warrior. Midnight Viewing's Father Malone joins the episode to talk Lord Humungus, Bruce Spence, and Miller's post-apocalyptic world.
Directed also by George Miller and starring Gibson once again, the film finds Max wandering the now post-apocalyptic wasteland of Australia looking to keep his V-8 Pursuit Special tanked up and full of fuel. Along with his trusty Australian Sheperd, he must help a civilization located in an oil refinery defend themselves from the menacing Lord Humungus.

Next Episode

Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome

We take a break from Mike White May with the third in a series of bonus episodes leading up to the release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga with a look at the final film in the original trilogy Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome. Midnight Viewing's Father Malone joins the episode to talk guzzoline, Aunty Entity, and why this movie has gotten a bad rap.
Directed once again by George Miller and starring Gibson once again, the film follows the titular Max as must contend with wasteland politics and resource scarity in Bartertown, a town run by Tina Turner's pitch perfect Aunty Entity. Throw in a dash of Peter Pan for good measure and you have the George Miller-est entry into the franchise yet.
