I wish there was a network where all the Sex & Violence heavy shows could go hang out and jerk off together.There is room for sexual content in Science Fiction to be sure.
Honestly, How much do people get paid for posting positive reviews for this show? I swear this garbage is about the worst sci-fi ever.
This French series (shot in English) adapts stories from the "Metal Hurlant" magazine, which eventually became "Heavy Metal" in the U.S.
My wife and I tore through these episodes pretty quickly. They were quite enjoyable and we made a game of trying to guess the "twist" endings.
The characters are too shallow, the scripts are not engaging and interesting to make it a cult movie.. It could be ok back in the 80's but way too weak for this millenium .
This TV show is a kind of punk version of the 50s classic "Twilight Zone". The stories told are out of short stories found into "Métal Hurlant", a very important comics and science fiction magazine published between 1975 and 1987 (and also in the US under the name of "Heavy Metal"), where it was possible to read people like Druillet, Moebius, Wrightson or Corben.
When a cheap looking Sci-Fi show comes around that I never heard of, I immediately fear the worst. Mutant Hurlant Chronicles came along- toting a big cast with recognizable names like Michael Jai White (Black Dynamite) Rutger Hauer (Blade Runner) Michael Biehn (Aliens) and John Rhys-Davies (Raiders Of The Lost Ark) I thought there might be a chance that it could be good.
For those of us who remember "Heavy Metal" and the Loc-Nar will find the premise of the film familiar as well as one of the songs played in a barroom scene. The metal core or "screaming head" of a dead planet travels throughout time and space entering and leaving the atmospheres of numerous planets causing events to suddenly change.
I really enjoyed this series. First off it's anthology which I do appreciate and next it was entertaining.
