The Running Man takes place in the dark dystopian future of 2019. The gang watches this movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and talks about the crazy premise, over the top characters, and if any of its predictions of the future came true? They also pick apart some of the most ridiculous one liners Arnold has ever delivered. How would you rank this movie and who is your favorite stalker in the movie?
NOTE: We forgot to mention it in the review but this movie was Written by Steven E. de Souza who’s movies we have talked about before and directed by Paul Michael Glaser who played Starsky in Starsky and Hutch.

I freaking love this movie. It is quintessential '80s.
Also I watched the new one recently, it wasn't terrible, but it wasn't good either, it was meh, and it was a whole lot closer to the book, but I just think the original was so much better.

Who’s here after watching new one? Like if you actually are. They should review the new one since it’s supposed to be more closer to the original book.

all these years later, the rental reviews crew still had the best and most creative ads. I never skipped these ads, why would I when they’re entertaining as hell? Keiran, Tony and Justin killed these.

My problem with the movie, it builds up to arnold character fighting jesse venturas character. And it never happens. He should of been the final boss. Its the fight we all wanted to see between the 2. Missed opportunity

I Love the VHS tapes in the background! Mostly I see Hammer Horror classics like the Dracula series and Frankenstein series which I've watched all of 10 times a piece…and The Reptile! That film is awesome! Hammer Horror films were the greatest!
