The 1995 Mortal Kombat movie has only two major redeeming qualities: It’s not 1997's Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, and it brought Oliver Adams’ “Techno Syndrome (Mortal Kombat)” into our collective lives. Beyond that major contribution to the sports arena DJ canon, the film was a pretty lousy action movie—which didn’t stop it from becoming something of a cult success, laying the groundwork for a whole bunch of inexpensive video game adaptations from its director, a young Paul W.S. Anderson.
