Dunno. I just started reading the book though and it rules. Someone should make this movie now with modern effects. It’s like a mix of Escape from NY, Sorcerer and Mad Max Fury Road.
I think not. Hollyweird would also add a lot of other "modern" stuff as well (which wouldn't, as experience has clearly shown us, make it better).

Honestly, the original novella length of the book by Roger Zelazny is a better, tighter read. But any Zelazny is a good Zelazny, even the ok ones.
Since I read it before any of those other movies came out, it always seemed to me that somebody somewhere forgot to give the author some fees or a credit or something!!
So sad that the only movie made from his work is such a dreadful dud. Albeit with a wonderful score that I am still amazed I can listen to whenever I want!

Yeah probably. But if they just shot what’s in that book it would be wild. I’d love to see the Sky raining metal debris and giant bats flying against purple skies.
 Haven't read the book. I now see what you mean.

You're tempting me to read the book. But then the re-made movie would pale in comparison.
But they haven't remade the movie yet. So do I wait for the remake, then read the book? Or read it now, and hope the movie never gets remade?
WHAT DO I DO??? (Besides having this Nerd-Spaz-Attack.  )

Always read the book first. It's what gives you "um actually" powers in any topic.

It's a fantastic film score to a weird and unsatisfactory movie. The characters have zero depth, things just happen, and not a lot of it seems to have any motivation, considering that this takes place after a nuclear apocalypse nothing seems ever at stake for any of these characters. Also perplexing to have Murray Hamilton wasted as a mere extra without a single line of dialog in the movie; obviously, this thing must have undergone a lot of editing.
I like the episodic nature of the movie though, and it's definitely the kind of science-fiction schlock I'd have enjoyed as a kid in a Sunday matinee showing.

Perfect movie for the average 13-y-o fanboy.

I found a copy of Intrada's DAMNATION ALLEY (used but very good condition) for 0.01€ at Amazon yesterday. I ordered it, and now I got a confirmation it's been sent. I wonder if that's for real?
