Review of The Running Man (1987) by Mike H — 24 Jan 2009
The year is 2019. Television is now ruling people's lives. The most popular "audience participation" game show is The Running Man-where convicts can win pardons instead of "parting gifts" by defeating murderous henchmen known as "stalkers." The stalkers haven't had much of a challenge lately...until Ben Richards (Arnold Schwarzenegger) comes along.
Also stars Maria Conchita Alonso, Jim Brown, Jesse Ventura, Kirt Fuller, Yaphet Kotto, Kate Parker, Lin Shaye, Marvin J. McIntyre and Richard Dawson.
Directed by Paul Michael Glaser.
