Mad Max (1979)

Visible crew/equipment: You can see the string that pulls Bubba off the bike when Max shoots him. (01:19:41)

Continuity mistake: When Goose crashes his motorbike, he lands on his front. The previous shot shows him falling back-first.

Continuity mistake: When Goose is ambushed by the bikers, one of them throws a brake drum through the windshield of his car, making Goose lose control and crash. As the car begins rolling down the hill, you can clearly see a silver-helmeted stunt driver falling across the front seat bench.

Trivia: Amongst the taunts that the Nightrider shouts to the police on the CB is a verse of the song "Rocker" by AC/DC.

Trivia: Due to budget constraints, the only real leather costume was Mel Gibson's.

Trivia: The movie had to be dubbed into American English for its US release because of its very noticeable Australian slang.

Grease Rat: Like the sign says, "speed's just a question of money. How fast you wanna go?"

Roop: That scag and his floozie, they're gonna die.

Johnny the Boy: Whacked right out of his skull man! He ain't never comin' back.

Question: Maybe a dumb question. But what exact kind of Apocalypse happens in the movie that causes all of these problems? Shortage of gas is one of them. But was it nuclear war or what? What would cause the port of Sydney Australia to dry up like it was shown in the 3rd movie? Did the whole sea dry up?

Question: Although we see that the biker gang has about 20 members when we first encounter them, why does Max only kill 7-8 bikers after his family is run down?

Question: Whatever happened to the 2 cops from the beginning that were in the March hare pursuit vehicle? We never see them again after the beginning. Did they die when their car overturned or what?
