GAR's masterpiece

Haven't been by here in a bit, but I was just on the Survival board and have just watched Knightriders again.

A 6 point something. Unreal. This film is brilliant in every category, and Ed Harris' performance is Oscar worthy, as well as the script, and maybe even direction. Best Picture as well. 'Reds' got nominated. Reds.

I can't believe with some of the crap in the 'top 250' , and this absolute gem is virtually unknown outside Romero fans.

10/10, and higher.

Yeah, it's one of my favorite films and a likely top 100 contender. On the other hand, I can understand why it isn't all that well known. It looks a bit cheap and the setting, subject and earnest approach likely ring as too geeky for most.

You must have been so afraid, Cassie... Then you saw a cop.
