Cast and Creators
Ruggero Deodato
‘80s exploitation maestro Ruggero Deodato (CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST) fuses high-concept sci-fi adventure with low-brow gorehound horror for the “utterly unhinged cine-spectacle” (The Spinning Image) that must be seen to be believed: When a pair of Miami mercenaries – Christopher Connelly (STRIKE COMMANDO) and Tony King (CANNIBAL APOCALYPSE) – rescue a team of scientists investigating the lost city of Atlantis, they’ll instead discover a post-apocalypse nightmare of punk-rock marauders, exploding stuntmen and synth-disco carnage. Ivan Rassimov (EATEN ALIVE!), George Hilton (ALL THE COLORS OF THE DARK) and soon-to-be-director Michele Soavi (CEMETERY MAN) co-star in this “Italian film fanatic’s wet dream…even the most narcotic-coated mind couldn’t begin to dream how amazing it is” (Moon In The Gutter), now scanned in 4K (UHD BLU-RAY DISC VERSION) from the IP for the first time in America.
Blu-Ray Special Features:

Press Quotes
F*cking awesome... Fast-paced, weird and extreme in violence and design. This movie is pure cocaine-snorting '80s gold.
—Grindhouse Review
An Italian film fanatic's wet dream...even the most narcotic-coated mind couldn't begin to dream how amazing it is.
—Moon In The Gutter
Strap yourself in for a wild ride... An ultra-gory disco-themed post-apocalyptic sci-fi action horror adventure and one of the wackiest Italian exploitation efforts of all time.
