What's up with the S&M costumes in the "Road Warrior"?

Question

I haven't seen Mad Max, but just finished the Road Warrior...I don't understand why the bad guys have this S&M thing going on...I don't mind but it seems so bizarre...thoughts?

Answer 1

I can't say the view of Vernon Wells' backside in those leather chaps bothered me any...besides, you gotta remember, this was the 80's and fashion was pretty terrifying, let alone costumes in movies.

Answer 2

If you didn't like that, then don't see the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
