Cycling cinematically
It's nearly that time again. Time to get on yer bike for the Aotearoa Bike Challenge.

Looooved this movie! It has a Tarantino style blood and a ton of fun. I felt connected to the characters really fely for them. This movie has lots of heart and should be watched.
Cheesy, but well-intentioned post-apocalyptic fare with Canadian and Australian actors you probably won't recognize (other than Michael Ironside, as the heavy). Lots of cartoonish violence including stabbing, decapitation, blood spurting, using inventive home-made weapons. My favorite was a club with a lawn gnome at the top. Don't look for a deep story here, but if you want to enjoy yourself with a plate of nachos on a Sunday afternoon, a few laughs and a happy ending, you might enjoy this one.
