Plot
An environmental holocaust desolates the world and turns human beings into gangs of rampaging marauders. John Travis (Ron Marchini) and three fellow policemen are out on patrol when they come upon an open-air female slave auction. The four slip unnoticed into the encampment, taking positions surrounding the auction site. A chaotic gunfight ensues in which the three cops are ruthlessly gunned down, leaving Travis alone to fend off the attackers. Travis is outgunned and outmanned, and forced to withdraw from the action. As Travis makes his escape, a solar flare is observed erupting. Travis tries to return to base, but is told by Prescott (Adam WestAdam West
