This is your brain on narcotics.
The theme of Mutant Hunt (1987) is probably We wanted to make a movie showing off our skills! From Mr. Cleft Chin to Mr. Martial Artist to the ladies who also did a bit of kicking, each gets to show off in this clumsy movie about a genetic engineer who discovers that adding a contaminated narcotic to the hydraulics of cyborgs results in vastly increased strength and a desire to commit murder of humans – which apparently makes them mutants. From the awful synthesizer music to the terrible stage combat skills, this was a colossal waste of time and effort. OK, I liked the cyborgs during their meltdown phase.
But it’s a bit of a shame. Somewhere in this swamp, some sort of theme concerning the cyborgs, such as their resemblance to slavery and what that says about those who use cyborgs, might have been found and worked out.
But that didn’t happen.
Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!
