The man who lost everything became mad with rage and thirsty for revenge. He lost his wife and child to gang members. Once they were gone, he became Mad Max. A man with only two instincts: Survive and Vengeance.

I got older, I can' t see this scene without tears.

This is a very important clip because this is the moment Max became Mad and started killing.

When he walks into that garage and you hear the supercharger always sends a chill down my back..classic scene.

The best Australian movie ever

Mel Gibson had a gift on film. From here in 1979 with Mad Max through Lethal Weapon movies to his masterpiece Braveheart. He has the talent to play a protagonist that lost everything to seek revenge

And this is where Mad Max was born.

The Toe Cutter and his gang didn't know they were dealing with someone smarter, physically tougher, better trained with access to a far more powerful vehicle than their motorcycles who was one nudge away from becoming just like them.

RIP Hugh Keays-Byrne (1947-2020). He'll ride eternal, shiny and chrome on the highways of Valhalla...

"My life fades. The vision dims. All that remains are memories. I remember a time of chaos, ruined dreams, this wasted land. But most of all, I remember the road warrior, the man we called Max. To understand who he was we have to go back to the other time, when the world was powered by the black fuel and the desert sprouted great cities of pipe and steel - gone now, swept away. For reasons long forgotten two mighty warrior tribes went to war and touched off a blaze which engulfed them all. Without fuel they were nothing. They'd built a house of straw. The thundering machines sputtered and stopped. Their leaders talked and talked and talked, but nothing could stem the avalanche. Their world crumbled. Cities exploded - a whirlwind of looting, a firestorm of fear. Men began to feed on men. On the roads it was a white-line nightmare. Only those mobile enough to scavenge, brutal enough to pillage would survive. The gangs took over the highways, ready to wage war for a tank of juice, and in this maelstrom of decay ordinary men were battered and smashed - men like Max, the warrior Max. In the roar of an engine, he lost everything and became a shell of a man, a burnt-out desolate man, a man haunted by the demons of his past, a man who wandered out into the wasteland. And it was here, in this blighted place, that he learned to live again." --Opening Monologue, Mad Max 2 The Road Warrior

Momma forgot to slash the tires of those motorcycles before taking off.

Terrible moment and event where Max, the MFP officer, became Mad Max for a merciless revenge !! So great !!

The world really went from bad to worse from Mad Max to the Road Warrior

Miller's got a thing for tough old ladies!

3:00 every step drives him more Crazy ... his humanity is gone in this scene ... madmax is born

It doesn't really turn into a Mad Max movie until the last 20 minutes.

Man, there's so many ways they could've survived this whole ordeal.

The world needs men like him. Not cops but hero’s who won’t run away from the thugs.

初めて観た時はハマリ込んだなあ😳

In high school we watched this movie in English Class. All the girls screamed in sadness and the boys were silent and angry. It the first time we as a class agreed on the same. Sadness for this brave, humble family MAN........ He inspired me and many others....never give up during tragedy of all levels.

Classic vengeance. To mess with a man's family.

where it all began. I was a touch saddened when I typed in "mad max" and 90% of everything that came up was from either the last movie or the upcoming one. thankfully there are plenty of us keeping these original 3 alive and kicking

I love the scene when he walks to get his interceptor, he fades away and then the interceptor drives, its like he fades INTO the interceptor, truly a part of him

"Anyone so much as moves i'll cheese im" most Aussie threat ever

Max worries that he'll become like the outlaws and criminals he deals with, but he doesn't truly take pleasure in inflicting suffering. That's what separates him from most of his enemies in the franchise. Only Johnny Boy suffered his wrath for murdering Goose.

That sweet note from the Z9 as the ball bounces down the road brings tears to my eyes.

Like how the belt on the van was rooted but also driving through the gate pierced the radiator.

A tragedy happened because Grandma, who had a shotgun, didn't destroy the runaway bike! I would shoot the tires and puncture them, or pull out the keys and throw them away. Set fire to the house! Lol

The BSO is brillliant. You got to love those classics

Running away down the middle of the road was pretty much clever of her.

Solid revenge is what he wanted.

As a mom I absolutely hate seeing babies die even if fake for a movie

the soundtrack is so old 60s Hitchcock, very clever film making on a budget.

Mel Gibson, a great and charismatique actor !!

THAT OLD LADY WAS AS TOUGH AS NAILS!

Still, most likely my favorite movie. Saw it with my Pop over and over again. Not a lot of good things to see as a little boy but….. I love it so much. Got the action figures to prove it.😊

Welcome to 2021

Used to watch it during video players such a legendary movie

Been probably 40 years sense I saw this going to have to rewatch it

Dam the KZfaq algo has been treating me good with gems like this

Mel and me driving across Australia in the interceptor, but no dog food .I love you Mel

This is one of the most brutal and horrifying scenes I have seen on screen. The ellipsis with the small ball on the road is so powerful and disturbing...

Super duper classic movie

this is a brutal scene

i just realized that this grandma with a gun is very much like filo bedo’s mama from Every Which Way But Loose!! Clint Eastwood is the original Mad Max 🥶

Humungous 😂

I remeber watching this as a kid on the movie channel. It was so awful, I wanted to rewatch it jsut from where he gets revenge over an over. " Hey man, thats my foot man! " .. really cemented his arc in Road Warrior.

Mad Max 😍, ça remonte à qq années mais nous y voilà, en effet...

Nothing like an American supercharged v8!!! The best!! Australia manufactures the USA V8, God bless em...!

Q: When being chased by vehicles why do people always run down the street? A: Because that's what's written in the script.

Les meilleurs films des années 80 ambiance musique acteurs tout était là bravo au réalisateur 👍

A melhor trilogia da história do cinema. Filme profético.

I Love mad Max

Ótimo muito Bom!! !

Max Payne 🤝 MadMax = Guys named Max who lost everything.

Best Ever 2020

Wonderful nice film pozz svima ot sefer i marija francija 🥰

What makes this whole story even more sad is that Max saw the world he knew fall apart along with his own family.

I believe George Miller was an ER doctor, so you know the dialogue between the doctors was written by somebody familiar with that language. If Jessie just had a flail chest and internal injuries, and the doctor thought she was salvageable, how do we know she didn't survive?

I remember the old lady from Prisoner Cell Block H

There are no more heroes 😂

It's the lady from prisoner 😂

Scarred me for life

😭😭😭😭😭baby max

O melhor de todos mad max

Mad Max, onde tudo começou!!

um clássico

And thus a man was broken… FOREVER!!!!!!

he's gone mad!!

I had to see this to see the connection with "The Road Warrior" intro which explained how he became 'a shell of a man'.

3:15 max became the shadow of a man.

The moment when all Hell breaks loose. Try dat shit again you better not miss.

3:13 the origin of Mad Max

Nice moviie

Just an average Tuesday in Australia.

Best injured leg hop ever.

At 4:04 you can see on Max’s face that he’s not there… he is already in the world of collision,destruction and only one thing remained for him:kill the ones whom ,,killed”him.

Viva mad max!

Mad Max 1,2,3 são com certeza os melhores filmes q envolvem veículos d todos os tempos insuperáveis até hoje.

😮😮😮😮😮 cena muito chocante 😮 nossa 😮 nunca esqueço 😮

This kinda reminds me of punisher movie 2004.When his family died but this is a good movie

The old MAY became crazy. Funny. And Max became MAD.

Meu pai tinha uma fita de video com esse filme top demais amo ❤

ótimo filme gastaria de ver ele todo inteiro.

Movie top !!!!!!!!

John Wick before John Wick ever came into being.

Well Well Well. Its our little mother. That there is Cundalini & Cundalini wants his hand back.

Foi aí que o Mel Gibson começou a correr 😆 maravilhoso, amo seu trabalho 💕👍🏼.

they edited this film ins a apartment building.that is awesome

It can be likened to a war of aggression. "The woman is helpless." man fights.

3:00 Always loved that part when he almost got into shock at closer look of whats left of his family. The audience dont see it but is enought for him to break apart in that moment, then he stil pushed himself to still try to save them. So much said with no words in a few seconds of acting. I dont care what they say, he might be a jerk but Mel gibson is great actor.

O que fez o papel de toecutter ,o líder da gang dos motoqueiros faleceu semana passada que Deus o tenha era uma pessoa de bem e gostava de ajudar nesse filme ele trabalhou muito bem.

classic aussie movie filmed in my home state

Es muy buena 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😱😱😱😲😲

Sound editing has come a long way

Mad Max predicted 2020/2021 ... in America!

Já tinha visto tempo longe

O Mel Gibson é demais

The storm symbolizes a man broken.

First Max Max is the most civilized one. We can see police forces and a hospital which could some form of still settled society after apocalypse. Also, we can see some greenery through forests and a farm. And for the end, Max is sitting near the ocean, sometihng odd comparing to other areas in the Wasteland. Later sequels were placed in lifeless deserted areas.
