Better Dead Than Red.

Rating: Null/10 (3 November 2001)

I have this mad theory about Total Recall which is that the famously USA-bashing Director Paul Verhoeven wanted this film about Earth and Mars to be a parallel for USA and Cuba. Mars is being starved of air the way sanctions are supposed to starve communist Cuba. Castro is Kuato, rebel leader and idealist. There is an ugly battle for control of the Â‘red' planet. Any takers?
