Two astronauts come back to earth to find an irradiated beach, a destroyed city, a band of mutants, a murderous gang and Forrest J. Ackerman. Not sure how long they were space travelling but the world seemed to have decayed a lot. There are some good effects of the ruined city and persuasive bits of gore but on the whole it's not exciting, partly because of the dreary voiceover given by the character Newman and the monotonously dull performance of Steve Barkett as Newman. The film only livens up when the reliable Sid Haig is onscreen playing the main villain Cutter. He is amusing and loathsome at the same time. As was his wont.
