The portrayal of McGruder is without doubt the finest performance ever committed to film.

They've screwed it up again!

Karl Urban looked awful and where was Judge Anderson and her tight leather trousers?

Damn you Film makers! You blew it up!!  Damn you all to hell...  ;)

This may be the greatest/worse thing I have ever seen/skimmed through.

Wow! That's... extraordinary.
Anderson's there at the 9:20 mark, only the top half though.

Well you can't fault the effort they went to.

I'm ashamed to say I used to own a copy of that. Its from a band called The Cross fronted by Roger Taylor of Queen fame (so I used to be a big fan of Queen, what of it)

Nowt wrong with Queen. Except maybe that pesky Freddie Mercury zombie.

McGruder reading the script is the greatest thing ever.  The commander in Plan Nine From Outer Space does the exact same thing.

........but even he still has more acting ability than the 'actress' playing McGruder.

1992? How can that have been out there for 19 years without me being aware of it? Arsom. McGruder's enthusiasm is inspiring.

Anyone else notice that Dredd's helmet seems to be suffering from a bad case of sunburn?

I didn't notice his zipper was undone.

That's the longest looking pistol barrel I've seen Dredd point around before this.

Oh come on,- I thought this was fantastic!

Yes, it makes everything I've seen from the as-yet-unreleased Minty, look like Oscar-winning material in comparison; but it's a zero-budget, labour-of-love, made by some kids with a camcorder in 1992! ( what did you do with your time that summer?), and at least they finished it!(dig,dig Minty crew)

I say 10 out of 10 for effort. I'm sure a lot of work (if not money or acting skill) went into it, and, as a story, you cant say it isn't pretty faithful to the spirit of the strip. I say 'well done' because at the end of the day, as  wonderfully absurd as it the whole thing looks,( and what ever else you can say about the 'acting' and 'cinematography' ) somebody who loves the comic clearly enjoyed themselves with this -and if nothing else, that prosthetic chin demonstrates a special level of commitment to the source material.

I've just realised who that prosthetic chin reminds me off - Robbie Rotten from Lazy Town!

I always thought a basic rule of entertainment was that the audience should have more fun watching it than the crew had making it.

I'm not sure they were even faithful to the character though.  I don't recall a bit in the comic where Dredd, when cornered without ammo, looks all scared and takes a step back in fear.

Hear hear! it may be a bit crappy, bujt you can feel the fan-love radiating off it!

Heh, I enjoyed that. Loved the way they got around not having a convincing Lawmaster by just having it zip past like a bullet. As has been said, 10/10 for effort. (Also, there's a "Yodelling Instructor" in the credits - very MC1!)

Thank you for finding this and sharing.

The opening v/o is absolutely demented.
