Storyline

Brooklyn's smuggling companions are slaughtered, sometimes violently, one by one as they wantonly defy the security systems of the Kyron-5. Babe falls into a vat of green liquid and becomes a cybernetic antagonist. Brooklyn is placed under arrest by Sergeant Nim, who suggests they follow surviving children Seven and Eleven. The Kyron-5 declared war on humanity, and killed most of those living on the island. Brooklyn, a mechanic, must overcome his fear of cockpits and command the Gun UNit/Heavy Elimination Device to the heart of the Kyron-5. Written by Scott Hutchins <scottandrewh@home.com>

Trivia

The concept for the film came from a story contest that Toho held in 1986, which was to decide on the narrative for the next installment in the Godzilla series. Jim Bannon was the contestant who was noted for his Godzilla 2 script, which had Godzilla facing off against a giant computer, but was beat out by Shinichiro Kobayashi with his early draft for Godzilla vs. Biollante. However, Toho didn't scrap Bannon's second place entry, but instead had Masato Harada heavily rework the idea, removing Godzilla and other elements from the film, until they were left with the final product: the infamous Gunhed.

Goofs

In the opening of the bandit crew flying in the Mary Ann toward the island 8JO, Bebe announces the name of the island they're flying to; in this shot, the camera pans over to Brooklyn who has the lip of his turtleneck below his chin. In the next shot, a close-up of Brooklyn's face, he's pulling the lip of his turtleneck down from over his mouth to his chin. See more »

Watch the music video Mindphaser by Frontline Assembly instead of this
14 December 2006 | by (Psychotronic land) – See all my reviews

When I saw the amazing music video Mindphaser by industrial rockers Frontline Assembly, I was curious to see from which film the clips were taken from. You see, Frontline Assembly got a hold of the rights for using images from GUNHED and edited together one amazing six minutes long music video which has become one of my favorites music videos ever. So it was only normal to see the film from which the clips were taken from.

Well, bad idea.

The movie sucks so bad that I should have been just happy with the music video. In fact, if you're reading this and never seen Mindphaser, go to Youtube and look for it. It's the whole movie condensed into 6 minutes, without the bad acting (and actors), bad pacing and well, bad everything. Mindphaser is a masterpiece of editing and music, which GUNHED is most definitely not.
