The Running Man (1987) Predicted Economic Collapse & Fake News

The Running Man remake starring Glen Powell and directed by Edgar Wright is coming soon, but before we dive into the new, let’s revisit the original 1987 cult classic that might’ve been campy… but was also disturbingly prophetic. In this episode, we’ll recap The Running Man, explore its wild video game boss fights, dissect how its satire of media manipulation became a reality, and point out how deepfake tech was predicted 30 years too early. Arnold Schwarzenegger may have worn a bright yellow "Stupid Sexy Flanders" suit, but this film hits a lot harder than you remember. Subscribe for more pop culture deep dives and recaps!
