S1E17 ~ The Last Chase
from Post-Apocalyptia Hosted by Timewalkerauthor
This week, join me for a look at an obscure but fascinating dystopian action film: 1981's The Last Chase, starring Lee Majors and Burgess Meredith! Windy joins me again to talk about the 1970s energy crisis, mobility as freedom, and authoritarianism. Plus, we'll look at that most unusual of artifacts: an '80s action film with no romance?! We'll also get nostalgic as we talk about our late father, who introduced us to this and many other great stories, and to whom we're dedicating this episode on his birthday. Join us there, at the end of the world! The Last Chase is not available for streaming, but can be purchased on DVD from Amazon and other distributors. For a special twist: Watch Mystery Science Theater 3000 take on this film, here on YouTube! Questions, requests, suggestions, and comments can be emailed to us at [email protected]. You can find us on social media at Facebook, Threads, Bluesky, and Reddit. Other contacts still to come. Website.
