Alicia I love this movie so much

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

hwg1957-102-265704 There's nothing like a post-apocalypse, time travel, religious icon, kung fu, neo-Nazi, Amazon (women's tribe that is not the river), jungle, dwarf and Mongol film and this is one, In fact it may be the only one. More elements are thrown in than the periodic table. Well not as many but you get the point. Director Cirio H. Santiago produces another film unlike any other. There is enough stuff for five films. Where can you find a film with Robert Patrick, Bruce Li, Jang Lee Jwang, Richard Norton and Peter Shilton? (Oh, my friends inform me this is not Peter Shilton the great English footballer. That would have been epic!) Not to mention Ed Crick as the snarling villain. He does a good snarl.The plot basically concerns a couple, Michelle and Slade, looking for the Spear of Destiny and the efforts of others to prevent them. Unfortunately the couple are very annoying, whining away so it is good that there is lots of action that halts them bleating away irritatingly. The action is surprisingly good. The dwarf tribe versus the Mongols is a standout. If you are in the mood for a spacy, pacy film this the one.

DJOfRadioGallifrey This is actually a good film, don't let the dodge music fool you. It may have a weird plot about relic hunting and saving the world, but it has good action sequences and a young Robert Patrick who is pretty cute, and features throughout the film. This is certainly a good role for a first timer in a movie (yes his first role ever), he has so much energy and charisma. The fights scenes are quite well done on such a low budget, 'Patrick' does it realistically with vigour. It may be cheesy when it comes to plot and music but it's the 80s. I would have certainly been entertained in the 80s, it is reminiscent of other classic 80s adventure/action films, you'll see what I mean. If they had tinsy bigger budget and better recording equipment this would have been box office magic. But I believe the film would have done well if more people had bothered to see it. The film has only aged because it has been overlooked. But it's a little gem for Robert Patrick fans- I watched this all the way through with a delighted grin on my face hence the high-ish rating.

BA_Harrison Jungle adventure? Time travel sci-fi? Post-apocalyptic action? Chop socky flick?: sometimes it's hard to decide precisely what kind of trash to watch! The answer to this dilemma... Future Hunters, Cirio H. Santiago's crazy crap-fest that mixes several genres and rips off a fair few better known films, but still manages to be a hugely entertaining one-of-a-kind experience.The film opens with some Mad Max-style action, hunky wasteland warrior of the future Matthew (Richard Norton) blowing up an assortment of evil leather clad punks in his quest to find the Spear of Longinus, which, when placed on the original staff, has the power to save mankind. Upon finding this powerful treasure, Matthew is thrown back in time to 1986 where he is fatally wounded saving sexy blonde amateur archaeologist Michelle (Linda Carol) and her ex-marine boyfriend Slade (a young Robert Patrick) from some nasty bikers.Before he carks it, Matthew entrusts the spearhead to Michelle and Slade, telling them to give it to a Professor Hightower, who will know what to do with it. The pair's search for the professor takes them all over the world, pitting them against power hungry Nazis, a deadly martial arts master, a bloodthirsty Mongol army, and a tribe of savage female warriors who guard The Venus Valley, the location of the spear staff.As well as Mad Max, Santiago borrows from Raiders of the Lost Ark (Nazi's in search of an ancient religious relic), The Terminator (hero travels back in time to before the nuclear holocaust), Romancing the Stone (couple stranded in jungle), and even Return of the Jedi, a tribe of friendly native midgets helping out in a scene clearly inspired by the Ewoks battle on Endor.It is, of course, extremely cheap and cheezy, with wooden acting and poor special effects galore, but it sure is fun, the best bits being one hell of a kung fu showdown between Hwang Jang Lee and Bruce Le (with Patrick throwing a few punches but getting his ass whooped) and a fight to the death over a crocodile pit between Michelle and an Amazonian woman.7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.

Bruce A. Johnson If this movie was meant to be anything but a farce, it failed miserably.If it WAS meant to be a farce, it was a very poor quality, and a not funny farce.Internal logic is lacking. Events happen without any indication of how the characters arrived at conclusions/decisions/actions.Genres & sequence:Starting with a Road Warrior type of sequence in 2025.Character time travels to 1986, then promptly dies after telling a local young couple that a spear head he brought is special (it had pierced the body of the once called "Christ").Couple is inexplicably chased by Nazis who somehow know that the spearhead is in their possession.Couple travel to Hong Kong in search of a "professor".Couple and Kung-Fu taxi driver encounter and fight a Kung-Fu Master who doesn't like their visiting the "Silver Fox Pagoda".Couple find "professor" who is captured by Nazis, and professor dies while couple miraculously escapes the Nazis twice.Everyone ends up on a "small" island off the coast of Hong Kong.Small island off the coast of Hong Kong is inhabited by lost tribes of: Mogols, Little People, and Amazon Women. Couple & Nazis interact with them positively and negatively.Couple wins the right from the Amazon Women to retrieve the spear shaft that the spearhead belongs to.Spear shaft and spearhead are joined.End of movie without anything following the joining the spear.
