I'm on a New World kick at the moment and this, despite its terrific concerpt and star (Claudia Jennings) does not hold up as well as the others - I think because the filmmakers weren't super in to the material. Maybe I'm being unfair - both producer and director went on to have strong careers but this lacks energy and verve of Big Bad Mama or Death Race 2000.
It does have some bright moments - Jennings looks spectacular and has a sexy love scene. Actually all the love/sex scenes work - Michael Pressman's slowish pace works better there. The death of one of the lovers works.
I got the two leads confused at times and also the male leads.
