5.0 out of 5 stars An In Depth Philosophical Discussion About Dehumanization, May 31, 2005

This review is from: Yor, The Hunter from the Future [VHS] (VHS Tape)

There aren't many films that can treat man's struggle with his environment with the subtlety and artifice that is seen in Yor: The Hunter From The Future. It is only under the delicate hand of auteur Antonio Margheriti can cinematography so sullen-cloud hushed also capture neon-like performances from Reb Brown, Corinne Clery and John Steiner. Not to be overlooked Carole Andre and the deep mercurial complexities she imbues into her Ena character.

Margheriti's work is his pinnacle film of contrasts, as few filmmakers have had the courage or the vision to explore the relationships that result from cavemen having to battle for survival against dinosaurs, robots -- as well as holograms. Here we see in stark, and sometimes unsettling granularity, how Margheriti's characters must confront their primordial pasts, their cold futures and their gossamer present existences.

Yor is more than a science fiction film. It is a true philosophical work that somehow marries Waiting For Godot, Ulysses and Brave New World on to the same cellulloid masterpiece - and yet traps it all in an unanswerable mystery of Hitchcockian proportion.

Every film student should commit this film to memory.

5.0 out of 5 stars so stupid it's great, April 3, 1999

This review is from: Yor, The Hunter from the Future [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is by far one of the worst films ever constructed by anyone, but it is so awful you'll want to watch it's glorious. splendor over and over again just to relive the crap that it is. Absolutely fake, hilarious, and undeniably a huge joke of a film, Yor, the Hunter from the Future has earned a place in my heart as being so awful, but yet such a great film! My hats off to this movie. If you see this dust-gatherer on the far wall shelf at Blockbuster video and you're in for a laugh, by all means rub off the grime and take a peak.

5.0 out of 5 stars This movie is absolutely terrible, June 14, 1999

This is a Mystery Science Theatre 3000 episode waiting to happen. This hands down one of the top 3 worst movies I've ever had the priviledge to see. Its a cult classic between me and my friends, and the humor ranks right up there with Dolemite.
