Trying to track down a Post-Apocalyptic movie

[Captain Tars Tarkas]

There are a lot of pictures from Wheels of Fire in my review (however none of the girl strapped to the car as I try to be work friendly)


I don't remember the flying part at all in any post-apoc movie I've seen.

akiratubo & Andrew ,

Thanks for the clarifiations.  I wasn't sure of those myself.

So we at least know it's not Land of Doom, Raiders of the Sun, Knights, or Equalizer 2000.  Aside from the description about the glider (the only PA movies with flying machines in them that come to mind for me are the Mad Max series, Tank Girl, and Slipstream, and it's none of those) the OP description sounds most reminiscent of Wheels of Fire so far.

There are a couple other PA type flicks set in the desert that could be it but I know next to nothing about them.  Here's a short list: Prison Planet, New Eden, Desert Warrior (starring Lou Ferrigno), and maybe Phoenix the Warrior.

If it's none of those maybe akiratubo's right, could it be possible your memory has condensed two different movies together?

Thanks for the suggestions folks.

I'm pretty sure the film was a direct Mad Max 2 rip-off, so similarities are understandable. I am prepared to admit I could be mixing a couple of films up, but even finding that out would help put my mind at ease.

I'll see if I can track down some of your suggestions and let you know how things go.

I dunno what it is, but I bloody well wanna see it now.

metal storm had a guy who spit something from his hand (i cant seem to remember at the moment if it was acid or fire) and it was certainly a mad max rip off (another long shot)

[diegobaz]

Did anyone ever figure out what the movie was?

[Cheefzboy]

Could be:

Tuareg: The Desert Warrior

Mind Warp

The New Barbarians

warriors of the wasteland

[akiratubo]

The New Barbarians

warriors of the wasteland

Those are both the same movie, and it isn't the one the original poster described.

whoa, this is one of the 'cold case' files...

did anyone say "Metal Storm:  The Destruction of Jared Syn" ??

has a blonde (Kelly Preston at that!) but I don't remember if she was nekked anytime during the movie.

and it has a guy with a fake arm, but he shoots acid, not fire.

but it has the desert setting, bikers, hero (loose term here) with 5 day stubble.....

eh, trying to do my part....

I was looking for a movie and came across this site and this conversation. It sounded a bit like the film I was looking for.

I located the film I was looking for which is a French PA film from 1980 called "Le Dernier Combat". Haven't got a copy yet but I am pretty sure this was the one I was think of as I recognise one of the characters played by Jean Reno.

Kinda reminds me of Neon City (91)

or maybe Cyborg 3: The Recycler (94) Or one of the movies from that series.

Hope this helps! Or at least give you an idea for a cool movie to check out

Hi!  I haven't seen this film but I was trying to google around a bit......could it be Dark Vengeance from 1992??
