When it was announced that Pa exploitation legend Cirio H. Santiago (Equalizer 2000, Future Hunters, and Dune Warriors) would helm another explosion ladden apocalypse flick for king of the Bs and long time producer, Roger Corman, the cult community went, not surprisingly, apeshit. Then disater struck the production when Santiago died during filming and Roger Corman put Jim Wynorski in to finish principal photography.

That was 2008. We've been told that the film is done, so where is it? All we've managed to track down form the finished film is this 9 second montage of finished clips - featuring muchas explosions and even a glimpse of Michael Madsen looking a little out of place.

Synopsis:

"After some type of world devastation, an amazon tribe of women led by three sisters is guarding an oasis of water which mercenaries are searching the whole world for, following a legend about a place where water still flows.

Somewhere in my near future there is a post-apocalyptic all-nighter happening where I play nothing but the films of Cirio H. Santiago. Santiago's films have brought me much joy over the years and being able to share news of his ongoing love affair with our favorite genre will be missed around here. He was responsible for directing over 75 productions (many for Roger Corman) and producing even more. Recently, Santiago was working on a sequel to Stryker called Road Raiders. I haven't been able to track down any info on how his untimely death might affect the film's production but we'll be sure to keep you posted. Until then, head through the break where you'll find a whole bunch of clips and trailers from his work. I highly encourage you to take a break from your hectic day and dive into the crazy fun worlds of Cirio H. Santiago for a few minutes.
