I could write a mean review of this bad, bad movie. I could talk about the idiotic story line, the atrocious acting, the stinky effects, the overabundance of cardboard boxes, the poor continuity, the cheap sets, the bad puppets, the bad camera work, the totally unconvincing street hoods, the poorly blocked fight scenes, the slow pace, the bad lighting, and the total waste of Forrest J. Ackerman. I could, but I won't.
I won't because this movie just made me sad. It was so incompetently made that I can't help but feel anything but pity for the folks behind this movie. Take the woman playing Sister Anne, for instance. She's well meaning enough, but at no time is she even close to being a former prostitute/drug addict. This woman can barely modulate between emotions. But damn it, she's really trying! She's trying so hard! She meant well, she's just not very good. I can't hate her.
So I guess the nicest thing you can say about "Future War" is that they tried really hard. Really, really hard. They failed miserably and made a movie so bad that your eyes grow a will of their own and refuse to look at the screen, rolling up into the back of your head in an extremely painful manor, but I will not say anything bad about them.
