Salute of the Jugger. David Webb Peoples. While I am at the topic of movies that inspired my childhood, this is one of them. Although I was 23 at the time it was released… please allow me my timewarp. The movie is bad and Rutger had to pay some bills most likely. Now the real interesting thing about this movie is that I only later found out that the director actually wrote two pretty good movies in his later years. Unforgiven by Clint Eastwood, that made Westerns acceptable again and Twelve Monkeys by Terry Gilliam. I am not sure how he views the start of his career, but from my side he is forgiven for this movie. Bad but enjoyable for kids who want more of the Mad Max era. What? Yes that was me. (1989)
