Cyber Bandits (1995)

It's like the 80's music scene tried to resurrect itself via TV movies. Kemp, Ant and Jones are the victims of this incredibly cheap futuristic version of North by Northwest. Kemp gets involved with a pretty girl, only to be dragged into a plot to design an incredible weapon. This weapon can hold people in a virtual reality prison. We never see these "prisons" as the budget just isn't there. It was a nice idea, especially before the likes of The Matrix etc. But like I said, it's cheap. The acting is terrible, with one of the heavies being less threatening than the elderly Gibson. Some atrocious dialogue does raise the comedy factor, but this is an embarrassment for all involved, and I'm glad I had some laundry to do whilst this played.
