Turbo Kid | comment |
Turbo Kid is a 2015 Canadian/New Zealand film starring Munro Chambers and Michael Ironside that's best described as Mad Max meets BMX Bandits.It's After the End (in 1997), and nuclear winter has left the land as barren and cold as Canada. Water is a scarce commodity, people scavenge just to survive, and BMX bikes are the chosen method of transportation. In this world lives a nameless, comic-book-loving yet streetwise youth and a hard-boiled "cowboy" named Fredrick the Arm Wrestler...It's based on a short film by the name of "T is for Turbo", one of the potential entries for the "T" segment of The ABCs of Death (watch the segment here). Suffice to say that The Movie has a much more positive take on its story.A Prequel Comic Book series, Turbo Kid: Apples Lost Adventure began 2021.Outerminds developed a retro-pixel Metroidvania Turbo Kid game for 2022.A sequel is in preparation, starting just after the events of the first movie. | |

Suit Up of Destiny: The Kid dramatically suits up in Turbo Rider's outfit. In the process of triumphantly lowering the helmet onto his head, he realizes that it's all rotten and gross, so he triumphantly lowers his old helmet into his head instead. Luckily, he'd already painted it to look like Turbo Rider's helmet, so it fits the rest of the outfit. | |

Spiritual Successor | |
Turbo Kid / int_27a42ebc | comment |
Spiritual Successor: A source of subtle meta-commentary. While the film has some aspects of a parody, it also sets itself up as a new, fresh version of classic 1980s fantasy and science fiction films with a Hero's Journey plot. In the movie's story itself, the Kid revives the idea of the original Turbo Rider, who died in the movie's fictional version of The '80s, and becomes Turbo Kid. | |

Turbo Kid / int_3ac583f4 | comment |
Sliding Scale of Idealism vs. Cynicism: Some of the most idealistic gritty ultraviolent exploitation you'll ever see, especially given the dystopic post-apocalyptic setting. Granted, the idealism is implied to be based on a lie, but it's a motivating lie and what matters is its meaning. Also a notable contrast with the original "T is For Turbo" short, whose tongue-in-cheek nihilism and fatalism took it in a... somewhat opposite direction. | |

Turbo Kid / int_3f45f1e6 | comment |
Adaptational Heroism: Turbo Kid in The Movie, as opposed to the original short. Also heavily implied as the backstory with the real Turbo Rider. The comics are established to have been marketed as propaganda pieces during the devastating earth-shattering war, so it's left unsure as to whether Turbo Rider was the hero he's portrayed as. | |

Bittersweet Ending: Apple is dead (for good this time) and the Kid is alone once more. However, during the final battle the Kid discovered a fresh, clean water source that will save countless lives and hopefully allow some semblance of civilization to evolve again. The Kid is also journeying across the Wasteland to where Apple came from, so maybe he'll find new robot friends. | |

Mentor Occupational Hazard: A surprisingly original take.

The protagonist learns from a very idealized version of what the mentor was actually like and makes it work. | |

Perpetual Smiler | |
Turbo Kid / int_7896ecc3 | comment |
Perpetual Smiler: Apple is extremely enthusiastic about everything, causing her to constantly smile and laugh even at the most inappropriate things. When trapped in Zeus' Gladiator Games, she just looks around smiling, tickled pink at the whole affair while the rest of the prisoners are shitting their pants. Later, when admitting that her draining power will soon cause her to die, she just smiles and laughs at the prospect, which perplexes the Kid. | |

Faux Affably Evil | |
Turbo Kid / int_95b7c400 | comment |
Faux Affably Evil: In most scenes Zeus acts less like a warlord and more like a polite small town police chief from a 50s sitcom-until he subjects the heroes to brutal torture and makes them fight brutal gladiator matches for his amusement. This is best demonstrated when he plays nice to the captured Frederick, even allowing him to light a cigarette, even though he has every intention of killing him once he's done with him. | |

Foreshadowing | |
Turbo Kid / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: The Kid asks Apple if she's able to shoot laser beams from her mouth. Guess what's Zeus' ultimate weapon. One of the skulls mounted outside of Zeus' fortress has the remnants of a mechanical eye in one of the empty sockets. Both instances of Robotic Reveal are foreshadowed: When asked if she ever rests, Apple cheerily says, "No!" After playing tag, the Kid is left panting for breath. Apple squats beside him and imitates his panting, clearly not at all winded herself. Apple states that some robots are evil, depending on the model. She also states that robots can eat, drink and breathe. These statements explain Zeus's bloodlust and ability to drink water. Also, when Zeus loses his eye, he reacts in anger rather than pain. | |

Shout-Out | |
Turbo Kid / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Many. —Not all limited to the 1980s. The opening montage song "Thunder in Your Heart" is best known for its appearance in the film RAD "A man with a good plan has already won half the battle" The shape of the Turbo Glove is obviously based on the PowerGlove. Apple’s tracking device is a modified slap bracelet. The costume design and the way the Turbo Glove shoots is basically a red Mega Man. To add to that, Skeletron shoots buzzsaws like Metal Man from Mega Man 2. The Kid's initial pose after donning the suit recalls the famous pose from TRON (recreated for the film's poster). Arm wrestling as the post-apocalyptic sport of kings is a reference to 1987's Over the Top. Fredrick (in addition to being a Mad Max Expy complete with Aussie accent) recalls Indiana Jones—especially when his hat is involved. The fate of Fredrick's hand and its robotic replacement recalls The Empire Strikes Back. "This is my GNOMESTICK!" is a nod to the famous line "This is my boomstick" from Army of Darkness. The long-haired, hockey-mask-wearing Mook recalls Casey Jones. The air punching when the Kid first dons his uniform also resembles the martial arts moves the Turtles would make in the first movie. Zeus' two main henchmen (Skeletron and the one with the gas mask) with their getups are reminiscent of Lord Humungus and one of the Three Storms respectively. The water? "It's people." The Kid also has "Soleil vert" cereals in his room. Soleil vert was the French title for Soylent Green. The Kid and Apple's stargazing scene is right out of The Lion King (1994) (complete with scientifically-accurate anecdote and similar shots). Apple’s astronomy lesson uses the quantity “billions and billions,” a phrase often associated with Carl Sagan and the 1980 educational TV series Cosmos. Apple's double-rowed heart meter is clearly inspired by The Legend of Zelda (complete with beeping when they're low). The Reveal with Zeus is inspired by The Terminator. The year the film is set in is 1997, the date of a nuclear holocaust according to Terminator 2: Judgment Day. Zeus meets his end in the same way as Jaws. Zeus' execution methods are cribbed from Hotline Miami, as is The Kid's use of a thrown hammer as a weapon. Apple's name is Apple and is a computer. Apple Computers may have been established in 1976, in the 1980s is when it really took off by introducing the Macintosh in 1984. Similarly, Highway 64 is most likely a reference to the Commodore 64. Apples's three rules of self defense are "Strike first, strike hard, no mercy." These are the tenets of Cobra Kai in The Karate Kid. | |
