Rebel Attack

Mutants Amok #3

by Mark Grant

The novel is set in a ravaged future where genetically engineered super-soldiers have revolted and enslaved humanity. The mutant masters now rule the Earth, using human remnants for labor or entertainmen. In this volume, mutant "filmmakers" in a ruined Hollywood have captured the lover of rebel leader Jack Bender. They intend to force her to star in a gruesome "snuff film" for mutant audiences. Bender leads his band of human guerrillas—including characters like Maximillian Turkel and Jill Morningstar—on a desperate, gore-filled assault to rescue her before the "final scene".

Reviews

[Craig · Rating 3 out of 5]

Mutants Amok: Rebel Attack was the third of a series that lasted for five volumes written primarily by David Bischoff under the pseudonym Mark Grant. It's a schlocky sex and violence series, set in a post-apocalyptic world in which genetically manipulated super soldiers have revolted and set out to destroy their human overlords. It's like a Troma film where the gory details are so over-the-top that they're amusing but lacking the subtlety and soft-touch finesse of films like, say, The Toxic Avenger. This one seems a bit shorter and sillier than the first two books; it's set in a Hollywood where the mutants are making snuff films of humans to amuse the mutant masses. The next one is set to star Jennifer, who had been presumed dead for a volume or two, and our heroes, the rebels Maximillian Turkel, Jack Bender, Phil Potts, Jill Morningstar, and other unlikely characters set off to rescue her from the evil clutches and lenses of Bennington-Spleen, Hairy Kahn, and Algernon Waugh. The story delivers what the cover promises, but with more sex and guilty humor.
