Whoa, I definitely concur with the other review. This is far and away the best rip-off of Mad Max, and a cool movie in it's own right. Bruce Abbott (Re-Animator, doy) plays the likable hero, and unlike the good guy in Italian Road Warrior clones, he's not a grizzled middle-aged man who seems to need glasses. No, it's Bruce's inherent likability that plays a big part in this movie's appeal. Sure, sure, there's the good writing and direction, and the heroine's pretty cool too, but Brucey really steals the show. So in a nuked-out future, a mysterious treasure guarded by monks must be protected from wayward warlords. Basically, that's it, but there's a lot of cool little inventive things that give the proceedings an extra kick and punch. I've only come across this flick once, and I'm thankful I bought it. It's pretty neat.
