    Storyline

    Edit
    'Hell' is the name of the hero of the story. He's a prisoner of the women who now run the USA after a nuclear/biological war. Results of the war are that mutants have evolved, and the human race is in danger of extinction due to infertility. Hell is given the task of helping in the rescue of a group of fertile women from the harem of the mutant leader (resembling a frog). Hell cannot escape since he has a bomb attached to his private parts which will detonate if he strays more than a few hundred yards from his guard. —Rob Hartill

    • Trivia
      Sandahl Bergman was supposed to be naked for the Dance of the Three Snakes set piece, but refused to do any nudity on the day this sequence was shot. Per R.J. Kizer, the character was originally written to be naked for the dance, but when Ms. Bergman was hired for the role one of the stipulations was no nudity. The scene was adjusted accordingly. Only Cec Verrell ("Centinella") had a contractual agreement for nudity.
    • Goofs
      At the finale of the movie where Roddy Piper is fighting the villain, the climax of the fight he grabs a sword and cuts off his hand. As he falls from the cliff you see that he still has both hands.
    • Quotes

      Narrator: In the latter days of the 20th century, there arose a difference of opinion.

      [a nuclear bomb suddenly detonates]

      Narrator: The leading experts at the time believed a nuclear war would only involve the exchange of a few bombs. And then, the suitably horrified combatants would sit down at the peace table.

      [Another explosion]

      Narrator: They were wrong. In just 10 days, 10,000 years of human progress was virtually blown to dust.

      Narrator: 10 years later, they tried again.

    Cheesy science fiction yarn...but watchable.
    'Hell' is the name of the hero of the story. He's a prisoner of the women who now run the USA after a nuclear/biological war. Results of the war are that mutants have evolved, and the human race is in danger of extinction due to infertility. Hell is given the task of helping in the rescue of a group of people from the harem of the mutant leader (resembling a frog). Hell cannot escape since he has a bomb attached to his private parts which will detonate if he strays more than a few hundred yards from his guard. Some cool special effects (the frog creatures look really good), bad acting, cheesy plot....Leave your brain at the front door, there's some entertainment to be found here.
