New Zealand's take on the 80's Post-Nuke Future hoopla and as they see it: Napalm has won over lipstick and chicken excrement is the way to drive!

They weren't aiming for AMADEUS 2 y'know!!

Satellite measurements of the Mesopotamian basin show that radioactivity levels remain high. And with the oil fields in Arabia still burning, the world's total reserves of petroleum have dropped even lower, making gasoline all but unattainable except for governmental agencies. Food riots have continued into the third day and martial law was declared for all of greater Detroit. Army units and the National Guard have been called into restore order. And the military commander in Michigan stated... .

... warning that all looters will be shot on sight. The migration into the countryside continues. And once peaceful rural areas have become a battlefield as roving bands, which can only be called bandits, raid farming communities for well hidden supplies of fuel as well as food and ammunition. The most notorious of these groups is led by the renegade army colonel Jacob Straker who travels in a heavily armored vehicle and has so far eluded all attempts at capture. With most of the law enforcement agencies fully committed to the cities, it looks like his mobile reign of terror will continue for some time.

Warlords of the Twenty-First Century

Simple, but Effective

&quot;Warlords of the 21st Century&quot; aka &quot;Battletruck&quot; (as it is known to me) was a movie that I saw once when I was about eleven years old. It came on late night television and it left an extremely good impression on me.. Since then I&apos;ve been trying to obtain the film on VHS for nearly eight years. It was so hard to get, even when I was in New Zealand I couldn&apos;t get my hands on it, as it was only for rent and no one would sell it to me.

Seeing it again it didn&apos;t give me the same rush as I was little, but still, it was very entertaining. This low budget &quot;Mad Max&quot;-like action flick is no blockbuster, nor is it surprising since the storyline is very straightforward.. But the battletruck itself looks scary, the music is a little creepy and the acting performances are good enough.. Great for an evening on the couch with some friends, IF you can get your hands on a copy.. 7/10
