Rowsdower70 Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Perhaps the greatest horrible 30 minute movie ever made. 11/10, would watch again.

Rowsdower70 Posted June 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 It was a Kickstarter. They didn't QUITE make the goal (which would have been a 90 minute movie and might have made my head explode) so they made this 30 minute gem.Hollywood makes 3 hour butt numbing films that aren't this much fun.

Atari Adventure Square Posted June 16, 2015 Report Share Posted June 16, 2015 Yeah, this short burst of 80s madness/goodness is likely to be the best thing ever...ever. So much love and respect for the era went into this - it's much more of an over-the-top homage than a spoof. They seem to have gotten financing (or interest at least) to make this feature-length. I dunno. Just the right size as it is. But very glad the creator of it is getting proper props and reward for enriching this chaotic-tech era with the smooth neon frenzy we 80s folks know all so well. And also, the Hoff's companion music video for this is a juicy throwback to the days of YouTube's daddy: MTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VectorGamer Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 I watched this last night. It started off with a bang then it slowed down for a bit. But overall I thought it was fun. I thought the lead character's voice reminded me of a mix of Keanu Reeves and Edward James Olmos. ⚠️ THIS MEMBER HAS BEEN BANNED FOR THE FOLLOWING INCIDENT: http://forums.atari.io/index.php/topic/475-theretrocade/?p=7683 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyfox Posted June 19, 2015 Report Share Posted June 19, 2015 Thought this was fantastic, with nearly ever 1980's TV and movie homage in a 31 minute movie and brilliant rub colour offset to give that old VHS film feel. They also have a game with the same name on the android and iOS stores, so if you haven't tried it yet, you should it's great fun.
