As films go, the 1979 Australian production, Mad Max probably wouldn’t
get much more than a blip on the radar had it not introduced Mel Gibson
to American audiences.
It’s an extremely low budget affair, neither well directed (by George Miller),
nor photographed. It simply exists.
But it’s essential viewing for fans of the genre and the character.
Both the original Australian track as well as the American dub are included. The dub
is far from perfect, but for those who can’t understand the accent of the subcontinent,
it’s all we have. I prefer the original.
Imagery is beautifully reproduced in 4k, with sharp, rich colors, great stability, and
proper grain. It’s all there, and Kino’s presentation couldn’t be better.
