Gunpowder (1986)
4/10
If you're a fan of Norman J. Warren, don't bother
17 September 2023
Having seen and enjoyed all of Norman J. Warren's horror movies, I was intrigued to see this Bond spoof to see how it compared. Sadly, it doesn't. The budget is no bigger but this kind of expansive action story just doesn't work on a tiny budget, as any viewer of action cinema will tell you. Instead we get a ridiculously unfunny scenario with a couple of guys, Gun and Powder; the effete one is played by Martin Potter of SATAN'S SLAVE and CRAZE fame. Their adventures involve them being shouted at by an exasperated Gordon Jackson, fighting off random black henchmen, and shooting up the woods at the climax. The 'seduction' sequence in the milk shop is perhaps the cringiest thing I've ever seen on screen.
