The Running Man

Two-faced sci-fi satire about a TV game show of 2019 A.D. that caters to the public's taste for violence with actual, to-the-death manhunts. The difference between that game show and this movie is in degree, not in kind. Plus the fact that the game show is only imaginary while the movie, in a sense, is inescapably "real." With Arnold Schwarzenegger, Maria Conchita Alonso, Yaphet Kotto, and Richard Dawson; directed by Paul Michael Glaser. 1987.
