134. The Running Man (1987)
This week, we review The Running Man (1987), Paul Michael Glaser’s dystopian action-thriller based on a story by Stephen King (writing as Richard Bachman). Arnold Schwarzenegger stars as Ben Richards, a wrongly convicted man forced to compete in a brutal, televised death game in a future where media and government control blur disturbingly. With satirical jabs at reality TV, authoritarianism, and media manipulation, this cult classic dives headfirst into a neon-soaked nightmare of entertainment gone lethal. Is freedom just another broadcast, or is survival the ultimate ratings winner? Listen on to find out! Movie 13492 on Metacritic’s all time movie list.
