The sort of movie boomers would have affection for having watched it as a kid. It doesn't age well and doesn't impress though the central idea is bold - a post apocalyptic tale involving a fight between two rival camps. There's lots and lots of talk about religion - people act as if they're in a South Seas tale.
The top billed actor is Robert Clarke but actually Ron Randell is more of the hero - a principled leader of the mutats who romances a girl from the other tribe.
Not well directed, silly outfits, lumpish dialogue. Randell is effective. He should have played more leads in America. I wonder why he didn't - he had the looks and could act well enough.
