A telepathic mutant recruits a post World War III TV game show warrior to lead her band of mutants to safety.
Practical Effects
Gloriously cheap mutant costumes and exploding cars shot on a shoestring.
Direction
Joe D'Amato directs with his signature 'quantity over quality' energy.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Part of Italy's 1980s 'mockbuster' wave, rushed into production to capitalize on The Road Warrior's success. D'Amato reportedly shot it in three weeks.
Laura Gemser was cast primarily for her Emanuelle fame; she later called this her most physically demanding role due to constant running from explosions.
