B-movie specialist Steve Barkett directs this sci-fi shocker about a pair of astronauts who return from a mission in space to discover that the world has been decimated by a nuclear holocaust. Arriving back on terra firma, the two space travelers learn that sadistic despots have horded high-tech weaponry and now reign through fear and violence. Now, in addition to fighting hordes of mutated marauders, the terrified pair will join a resistance movement in a valiant attempt to take back the planet and reestablish civilization. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
