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?'
