Mad Max 2

Movie • 1981 • Action  

Report
Max Rockatansky returns as the heroic loner who drives the dusty roads of a postapocalyptic Australian Outback in an unending search for gasoline. Arrayed against him and the other scraggly defendants of a fuel-depot encampment are the bizarre warriors commanded by the charismatic Lord Humungus, a violent leader whose scruples are as barren as the surrounding landscape.

In the last third of the film: Max is seriously wounded and his car wrecked after being run off the road by Wez in Lord Humungus's nitrous oxide-equipped car. One of the Marauders kills Max's dog with a crossbow before Toady's attempt to siphon the fuel from the Pursuit Special's tanks triggers the car's self-destruct, which kills both Marauders during the explosion.

Portrays gay men as violent, predatory, and uncivilized. Their presence is used to illustrate “downfall of morals” and they’re killed by a straight cop.

Looks like a woman might be forced down to the ground by two men. It's not obviously clear what's happening, though.

Contrary to what another comment said re: "is someone sexually assaulted," the rape and murder of a woman is shown on screen. Starts ~21:45, ends ~23:45. (There is a lot of cutting between the rape and other action happening at the same time, during those two minutes.)

No scenes taking place in small spaces that I can recall, but it's maybe worth noting that in one shot we see a guy get crushed under a car.
