You absolutely must include Slipstream (1989), with Bill Paxton and none other than Mark Hammill himself playing the bad buy.
I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

Although  Mad Max 3 is a crapy movie, we are talking abouth Z-grade ones. ;)

Deathsport (1978)

I'm quite surprised how many people didnt see Deathsport, its one of a few Postapocalyptic movies that decides to ripoff Star Wars and Rollerball during the production. Although the intent was to make a Death Race 2000 part 2 and I assume most of the Deathsport 'haters' are looking at the movie for what it should be and not what it is... Deathsport is one of the first Postapocalyptic Sword and Sandals film.

6. Warriors of the Apocalypse (1985) [Philippines]


I don't have any suggestions right now, but I wanted to point out that this one is a lot of fun, and often overlooked.  It has pygmies and lasers to go along with the usual PA madness.  Unfortunately its not on DVD, to my knowledge.  :bluesad:

Steel Dawn
Survivor

Aww... you mentioned the two I was going to.  :wink:

The other one I know of is Percival Rubens' Survival Zone.

She Wolves of the Wasteland (aka Phoenix the Warrior) - Kathleen Kinmont!
Crash and Burn
Robot Jox - not post-apocalyptic, but futuristic and very cheesy.
Creepozoids
Starfire Mutiny
Dark Planet
Battle Queen 2020
The Rollerblade trilogy:  Rollerblade, The Rolletblade 7, Return of the Rollerblade 7 (aka all sorts of other things) - these are about as Z-grade as it gets.  Not on DVD, but the VHS tapes show up on Ebay occasionally.
Hell Comes to Frogtown
Solarbabies

[cannot find a video]

World Gone Wild (1988)

Pretty good list so far. Better add The Blood of Heroes. So much to love about that movie, makes me chuckle just thinking about it.

I thought I was the only person on the planet who owned a copy of RUSH.
I would add EQUALIZER 2000 to the list. Any movie with Corinne Alphen is a must see.
