6.1 / 10

From the distant 16th century, Queen Elisabeth I summons the spirit Ariel with the aid of the court's alchemist, the sage Doctor John Dee, to witness the appalling revelation of a dystopian London drowned in filth and plagued with crime. As a result, the Queen horrified with the vivid vision of a broken-down British Empire, asks to travel beyond the veil of time, some 400 years into the future, to see firsthand, that in this futuristic and horrendous new order, the capital is overrun by a corrupt police and that an autonomous vicious gang of punk guerrilla girls led by the new Monarch of Punk, Bod, has declared a multi-levelled open war. Now that Britain is practically a wasteland, where is her Majesty, the righteous Queen Elisabeth II?

Don't remember the clip of the Slits chasing an oil drum in the film? Had a crush on Viv Albertine for so many years... - @Tuesday, August 7, 2018 10:37 AM

Jarman made memorable films on tiny budgets and struggled to get even the miniscule funding for his films. He could have made a hundred films for the price of one Hollywood crapfest movie. He left us Sebastiane (1976), Jubilee (1977) The Tempest (1979) The Angelic Conversation (1985) Caravaggio (1986) The Last of England (1988) War Requiem (1989) The Garden (1990) Edward II (1991) Wittgenstein (1993) and Blue (1993) along with lots of shorter films. - @Sunday, May 25, 2014 8:56 AM
