Only watch if you have nothing better to do or watch First film ive watched all way thru that i havent given a 5 or higher to Ok acted and filmed , just a poor boring meandering story with only a maybe ending, ie she may have reached her fabled sanctuary but its hard to tell. Boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless boring and pointless.

The acting is good. The plot is hard to figure because we are not privy to all the characters' motivations but things begin to make some sense. I enjoyed this movie. Some twits complained that a daughter and father had a child but that's not promoted as good, just the way things are at the end of the world. Some complain that it is anti-men but they live in a world where the men turn animalistic so you'd be anti- men too! The women were just as bad so no bias there. I didn't think the dialogue was bad, just stilted in a world of fear and mistrust. Clearly cheap to make but nothing wrong with that...so was the original Mad Max. Maybe not great but I've sat through a lot worse. I'd say it's worth your time if you have a bit of patience and a little more depth than some of these reviewers.

It almost made sense. The girl was stunningly beautiful. The acting seemed fine. The first half was great. Then, what? Some kind of cryptic goulash of almost explanation; with almost a resolution. I gave it four stars; because it was almost good.

But it can't make up for the absolutely atrocious dialogue. Whoever wrote this flop has no idea how people speak, or how dialogue should flow, or, you know, actually make sense in the context of the scene. Couldn't even finish it due to cringing every time a character opened their mouth. Steer clear. Waste of your time.

Don't waste your time. Good concept, poor writing and senseless ending. This is a real stinker of a movie.

I was hoping this was going to be a decent B movie. Well, swing and a miss, big time. The story didn't seems to make much sense, nor did it even flow. Random events, even more random dialogue, and the lead character, Lauren McKnight was a walking trash can. She came off as one of those macho lesbians that tries waaaayyy to hard to be manly. If she would have chewed tobacco, her persona would have been complete. Her acting is right up there with Ralph Machio from the original Karate Kid. Paper bags have more personality. Overall, a dull story on a shoe string budget. Hard pass.

Most of the cast were okay and the locations were good. However, the story is meandering and lacks a coherent structure, and some of the dialogue is poorly written. It would have been better if the main character had been more likable, so she could have gained the sympathy of the viewer. And when we do see a likable female character, we soon find she is in a sexual relationship with her father and has had a child by him. That is sickening, at least to me. There are a few decent action scenes, but overall the movie is too negative and depressing.

Utterly pointless movie. Ultra low budget - checkout the energy barriers at the beginning ie a light bulb inside a parking bollard did not bode well for this calamity of cringe. It has some monster effects but you see them for about 1/2 a second and barely that with some really poor zombie makeup and weird pieces with a fathers incestuous relationship with his daughter and other weirdness it all just became laughable as it appears they are trying to make some cult sci-fi horror without any Horror or any Scifi! The acting is tragically poor , the story is mind bogglingly stupid and nothing makes sense especially the continuity and oh the end sequence....Pitiful drivel!
