A Travesty!

Settling down last night to watch Mad Max on video, imagine my horror when it became apparent that instead of the Australian original version, this was the American dubbed version! Oh my god! How they managed to find such a bunch of hamfisted hacks to do the voices I'll never know... and every scene with even a whiff of drama or emotion was given the faux orchestral schmaltz treatment... fucking awful. American audiences are too dense to understand dialects and too lazy to read subtitles, hence the travesty we have here...
