Rijndri Load of rubbish!!

ShangLuda Admirable film.

Derrick Gibbons An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

eyeoftheliger It's very, very bad. The story just goes from scene to scene without any point whatsoever.Don't expect a B-film gem here. This is not low-budget, it's just crap. More money would not have saved this film from itself.It's not Mad Max, but that's fairly evident. There's no deeper story in play here. The action is the high school film project level.The dialogues are just people talking. There's no snappy lines, no depth, no philosophy, no reflection, no wit, no cheesy one-liners.It's not even enjoyable as a bad film. There's little to laugh at.I would give 10 stars to Samurai Cop and none to this one. I'd give the Room 7/10 or 8/10. Those were entertaining.There is no reason why you should watch it unless you're performing an autopsy on the Canadian film industry.

zeppo-2 A pretty accurate quote from one of the characters in this bizarre post nuclear holocaust disaster film. Really it's a type of 'West Side Story' but without the singing and dancing, as two gangs try to take over what is left of the earth. Why bother, you might say? And could be right after you watch this fairly inept film. Lots of smoke and explosions and fights but not a lot in the way of plot or logic. But if you lower your criteria, this can be fun at times.It starts off as 'Mad Max,' then a bit of 'Porkys,' before a twinning of 'Cannibal Holocaust' with 'Dawn of the Dead.'The director must have realised this wasn't the masterpiece he was hoping for and to keep people's (read that as 'men') interest in it, he throws in lots of gratuitous nudity. Every woman here seems to need to take a shower/wash at the most inopportune moments. They even manage to sneak in a game of strip poker while waiting to be attacked. Also strong lesbian and S&M overtones too to keep everyone happy!And see if the ancient old man kept alive by the blood of the living, isn't a bit like Young Mr Grace from long running British sitcom, 'Are you been served?'

Paul Morris Another of the endless post-apocalyptic dramas out there that for a change lays the blame for the end of mankind at a "plague", and not a nuclear war! The film starts with some survivors having a meeting about a band of vicious killers who are targeting them for no reason other than to have complete control over "New Idaho". Half-way through their meeting, these killers (led by William Smith in a cape) show up and sure enough shoot the lot of them, apart from a mother/son combo who manage to get away, and the group's leader (an old guy) and his daughter (a hot blonde), who are captured by Lucas and his posse (which includes an apparent lesbian second-in-command), and taken back to their headquarters (a castle on a bridge) to be held prisoner and interrogated.The daughter just happens to be the surviving son's girlfriend and he is most distressed about leaving her. He tells his mother that he wants to go back and save her (he "knows" she is alive, even though he didn't see her get captured), but while they are on the run some more of Lucas's band of merry men, all done-up in the usual leather-n-chain outfits of the post-apocalyptic era, appear and kill mom. Luckily for sonny (his name is Harris), a seemingly-random tough-nut woman out on a joyride in her futuristic jeep spots the commotion and saves Harris from the same fate as his mother, by blowing the evil gang away. She (Danielle) befriends Harris and takes him back to her hide-out, which is an open camp run by two Vietnam-vets. They are planning an assault on Lucas's fortress, and Lucas knows all about it. That's why he wants Harris's girlfriend's father, who is knowledgeable in their whereabouts and wants to send out his gang to kill them before they can do the same to him. He puts the daughter in all kind of perilous situations (including what appears to be lesbian rape from the second-in-command!) to make him talk, and once he does, the second-in-command blows his brains out. Then, after she and the gang is sent out to find the vets (or "arms dealers") and Danielle, etc, Lucas reveals his big plan for the daughter - he wants her to carry the baby of his own father to keep their little "tribe" going into the future and honor his father's wishes! Once that bizarre revelation is out of the way, the movie kicks into more high-gear with endless action sequences and mind-boggling scenes. Watch Harris, Danielle and the vets battle cannibal survivors of the plague, Lucas's army and boredom as they play strip-poker with two blondes (who keep losing and must strip, of course)! They also have a prisoner, who was the arms expert of Lucas's gang, and a computer that talks with a female voice and can fly a helicopter just from sitting on the seat. There are copious amounts of action, which are all horrendously executed, thanks to the films low, low budget. People get shot without squibs (well, some of them), and in most cases the explosions are little more than sparks and smoke cannisters, while the same people are shot over and over again. All of the gunshot sound effects are almost muted, and you can barely hear the damn things go off, while every other sound is loud as day. That was a real bizarre element of the film. The acting of course is pathetic, and the old guy who is supposed to be Lucas's father is clearly middle-aged and wearing excessive make-up and a terrible wig. Check out the bogus abrupt ending, and the "futuristic" cars that are totally trashed on the exterior, but have perfect engines and tires. Oh, and thankfully the hot blonde daughter (Claudia) is spared her "rape" by the old fool in the nick of time. The girls and the wacky action sequences might be enough for you to enjoy this film, but it's certainly an odd-ball!

wolfhell88 Tough Warriors, good fights, lots of action, sexy amazon women and not to forget a great bad guy, played by the fantastic William Smith. If you are into B-movies, this one is a must. If not you wouldn't read this lines.
