Known as both Atlantis Interceptors and Raiders of Atlantis, Ruggere Deodato’s 1983 film imagines what would happen if the lost continent of Atlantis rose from the ocean in the vicinity of Florida.

In today’s scene that I love, the Atlanteans make their first appearance and they turn out to be a bunch of refugees from Mad Max.  Seriously, why would an underwater civilization need that many motorcycles?  And who knew that punk rock was so big in Atlantis?

That said, the guy with skull mask is definitely menacing.
