Product Description

After the Oil Wars, civilization has splintered up into small self-sufficient communities. Suddenly across the countryside comes Colonel Straker, ruthlessly smashing and enslaving each community underneath him with his armoured battletruck. When the mysterious motorcycle-riding Hunter rescues Corlie, a woman Straker keeps as prisoner, Straker swears vengeance.

3.0 out of 5 stars made to cash in on the Road Warrior, January 22, 2006
By Raegan Butcher (RainCity, OR) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Warlords of the 21st century otherwise known as Battletruck
is a low budget, shot in New Zealand attempt to cash in on the worldwide success of The Road Warrior. It has a lot of things wrong with it but rather than dwell on those I would like to point out the things that are right- for instance the simple but effective opening sequence with a sky filled with black smoke and the words AFTER THE OIL WARS...
Then on the soundtrack a crackling and distorted radio broadcast...
"Satellite measurements at 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 unobtainable except for governmental agencies..."

Not as grand or operatic as the opening of the Road Warrior but not too shabby either.

"Food riots continued into the third day and martial law has been declared for all of greater Detroit. Army units and the National Guard have been called in to restore order and the Military Commander for Michigan has warned that all looters will be shot on sight...The migration into the countryside continues and once peaceful rural areas have become a battlefield as roaming bands of what can only be called bandits raid farming communities for well hidden supplies of fuel as well as food and ammunition..."
If the set up were followed thru with a better film this could have been a classic, but as actually executed it's merely an early 80's curiosity only worth picking up for fans of the genre who have a lot of forgivness for a high level of cheese.

1.0 out of 5 stars how much worse can a movie get, March 20, 2006
this is a grade z rip-off of the road warrior that plays like outtakes from that movie. action is very small and the acting is just not good. stick with the road warrior instead
