but instead of one man on death row, it's half the people of Earth. It's basically a typical apocalypse flick, without the zombies, They all have zombies now but in the 80s they didn't. This one stars Wings Hauser, who doesn't play a zombie and who's real name probably isn't "Wings", Brion James, who thinks it's cool to spell Brian with an "o", Jeffrey "Puff Daddy" Combs, who played an Andorian in star trek, and Tasia Valenza, who played a Vulcan in star trek, and who I went to High School with. (small world).In summary, this movie is not very good but it needs more reviews, so I wrote one and I think everyone should write one, whether they've seen this film or not.

You absolutely must see every Wings Hauser, Brion James, or Jeffrey Combs film, could be the only three possible reasons to see "Dead Man Walking". The whole thing looks like it was shot in a Newark junk yard. The kidnapped girl is so unsympathetic, you will regret that Brion James keeps her alive. Speaking of Brion, he is fanatical and memorable as the villain . Other than a Russian Roulette game with chainsaws, everything else is forgettable. The meaningless and totally "not funny" newscasts that are spaced throughout the film are nothing but padding for a script that could have been thought up in fifteen minutes. Believe me, unless you are a fan of the actors, this is to be avoided like the plague (pun intended). - MERK

Obviously, this "Dead Man Walking" is not to be confused with the 1995 Susan Sarandon movie of the same name. That movie was a quality production, for one thing, and this movie isn't. I should mention that I don't automatically look down at B movies - I watch them all the time, and I find some of them to be enjoyable. But there's pretty much nothing to enjoy in this movie. It's very cheap - it looks like it was filmed in junkyards and boring desert locations with nothing done to spruce these locations up. The low budget also means a lot of stuff happens off camera (check the scenes where someone gets shot, for example.) The screenplay doesn't feel like much thought was put into it - it seems at times they were making it up as they went along. The movie does boast a somewhat impressive B movie cast - Hauser, James, and Combs - but they all seem to be running on autopilot. The only moment of interest in the movie is the sequence where two people play Russian roulette with a chainsaw, but the promising consequences of that are spoiled by the movie's previously mentioned habit of stuff happening off camera.

like every post apocalyse movie this one have the scenes into a junkyard, with garbage cars (I mean a pacer-buggy!!) and very very bad special effects. The only good actor for the psicopatic conduct is Brion James, a classic actor of the doomed future of mankind. If this movie have a big evaluation by IMDb users is for his homolog "Dead Man Walking" with Sean Penn and Susan sarandon, not for itself.
