Rating: 2/4 -- The savage wasteland is believably captured, but a so-so movie completely goes off the rails once the action moves to an underground society. Full Review

An unexpected triumph. Full Review

Jones' debut as a director nevertheless has a distinctive tang, as affably unprincipled as the series of villains he played for Sam Peckinpah. Full Review

Rating: 63/100 -- Despite memorable main characters, a half-decent take on an overused premise, and unforgettable scenes, the film's attitude and political stance haven't aged with grace.

[I]t's a smart, maverick thing. The dog rules.

Rating: 2.5/5 -- The good ideas are marred by awkwardness; the terrible ideas are redeemed somewhat by being, at least, unpredictable. Full Review

Product Description:

Vic (Don Johnson), survivor of atomic holocaust, wanders hungrily across the bleak desert landscape in search of cans of food buried deep in radioactive ash. His telepathic dog, Blood (Tim McIntire) depends on Vic for food, but Vic needs Blood to find him something much more scarce: female companionship. The bedraggled duo eventually discover an underground society of survivors, called "Down Under," where they have reproduced the look of pre-apocalypse Americana but with frighteningly totalitarian politics. A cult black comedy based on the novella by Harlan Ellison.
