A raw, high-octane exploitation thriller set in a lawless post-apocalyptic wasteland, driven by relentless action and anarchic violence.

In the ravaged near-future, a savage motorcycle gang rules the road. Terrorizing innocent civilians while tearing up the streets, the ruthless gang laughs in the face of a police force hell-bent on stopping them.
