Highlander (1986)

Mon, 18 Apr 2016 04:21:00 GMT

Matthew and Lee tackle one of the greatest flicks of all time. Don’t lose your head! THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE.

I found it tough to find the theatrical release of Highlander. Most services have the directors cut, which was quite coveted in the 80’s (I bought it twice on VHS) – yet now just muddies the waters of what Highlander is. I liked the pre Fasil backflip version. The “Rachael” is just a mystery. And most importantly, I preferred the “about 1783” talk where Brenda was silent, over the 1783 talk Brenda saying “That’s old”. BUT HEY GUY, YOUR THE MASTER RACE!
