A group of protesters who call themselves "mutants" have taken over the inner city streets of a large city. They dress weirdly to try to show the effects of toxic poisoning. One  of the mutants, Splatter, has really been affected. A group of fraternity boys decide to go into the mutant territory and kidnap one of the mutants as a prank. They are inadvertently framed for the murder of the mutant leader and are hunted through the abandoned buildings and dark streets by the crazed Splatter and his gang. Reception. Critical reception for the film has been mixed to negative. "Allmovie" gave the film a mixed review stating, "Filled with all sorts of anti-nuclear mumbo jumbo bred straight out of the Cold War Reagan era, Future Kill is slightly interesting for  its relative place in history, but better viewed as '80s trash cinema whose long life on home video spawned more memories of its box art than anything else." Felix Vasquez Jr. from "Cinema Crazed" gave the film a negative review calling the film, "immensely dated and standard science fiction punk flick from the era of leather jackets and Mohawks". "TV Guide" awarded the film 2 out of 4 stars stating that it "serve[d] no purpose but to sate juvenile blood lust and to take people's money". Home media. The film was released on DVD by Subversive Cinema on October  31, 2006, in widescreen formatting and included a ""Making of"" featurette, full length commentary by the director Ronald Moore and the producer/star Edwin Neal, cast and crew biographies and a reproduction of Giger's original artwork.
