Megaforce: Summer of '82

Though largely, and justifiably, forgotten since its release on June 25, 1982, Hal Needham’s Megaforce is a truly breathtaking experience. And we don’t necessarily mean “breathtaking” in a positive way. This week, Paul, Javi and — of course — Producer Brad take one for the team and come back much changed, chafed, and itching to chat through this grand guignol of gunfire, explosions and toxic masculinity. The manly men of Megaforce may live by the slogan “Deeds not words”, but so many of those deeds are duds, and we have witty, wise words of warning! It is truly one of the most mystifying films from the summer of ’82, and we watched it so you don’t have to.
