In a post-nuclear holocaust wasteland, Sam Hell (""Rowdy"" Roddy Piper) is like most other survivors; a nomadic scavenger roaming the bombed out remnants of the world for food and survival gear. But... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This is just another post-apocalypse movie, more of a Mad Max or mad Maxine. The frog people are just not pretty faces. Other parts of their body are more versatile. There is no way that Roddy Piper (Sam Hell) can compete, so he appeals to their sense of humanity. Propagation is implied throughout the movie. There are even a few sweaty scenes, and no one stays in the car.
Roddy did a much better job in “They Live.”
You may recognize some of the filming locations (you notice that they did not go far):
Kaiser Steel Mill, Fontana, California, USA (Exterior)
Indian Dunes - 28700 Henry Mayo Drive, Valencia, California, USA (Exterior)
Lincoln Foundry, Vernon, California, USA (interiors: exteriors)
Vasquez Rocks Natural Area Park - 10700 W. Escondido Canyon Rd., Agua Dulce, California, USA (Exterior)
This is a combination of "John Goldfarb Please Come Home" and "Cannibal Women in the Avocado Jungle of Death” (1988).
At least they did not “Froggy Went a Courtin’” in the background.
