The year is 2009. After a world-wide economical collapes, the entire middle-class is wiped out, leaving only high-class and low-class. The high-class rich reside in a place called Parkland. Parkland is surrounded by high walls so they would be seperated from the low-class citizens. There are no jobs, so there is no way that low-class citizens would ever achieve a better life.

User Reviews

Pretty bad but still watchable

Hey, it may have a name almost as bad as Fox's "When Good Times Go Bad", but this movie isn't as bad as it could have been. Considering it's budget, this movie did pretty good in the way of special effects and location shots. The movie was clean and slick, easy on the eye in the way of visual clarity, unlike some films which look like they were shot with vasoline on the lens. The acting wasn't very good, and the names of some of the locations (i.e. "Oldtown" and "Parkland") left something to be desired. The lead character's favorite weapon was kinda cool, but ended up just looking silly. So, if you're sitting around with your buddies watching cable TV, this is the movie for you.
