Synopsis: This is the time when our nation's story begins, the epic fantastical tale of New America. We shall begin in 2097, two decades after the nuclear apocalypse that annihilated the United States.... This is the time when our nation's story begins, the epic fantastical tale of New America. We shall begin in 2097, two decades after the nuclear apocalypse that annihilated the United States. Tex Kennedy - orphan, hero-in-waiting and underground bunker resident - has been parented solely by the inspirational radio broadcasts of King Remington. When Remington's final broadcast commands any brave soul listening to bring his nephew Benjamin to power, Tex sets out to infiltrate the notoriously dangerous "Threshold of Hell". By seizing control of the Gamma Radio 12,000X (a massive radio tower at the center of the Threshold), Tex aims to use Benjamin's voice to reach out and unite the remaining Americans still living underground. Unfortunately, the only help he's going to get on this quest through the wasteland of New America will have to come from his two robot companions, Yul and Quincy, and a mythical young woman known through legend as "Cannibal Sue". The events of their epic journey created our early heroes, forged a new breed of villains, and shaped the history of our nation forever. History has never been so cool... --© Official Site [More]

An insufferably one-note, postapocalyptic "satire" set in the aftermath of the nuclear destruction of the U.S.

Funnier on paper than in reality, this self-impressed film has the stop-and-go pace of a student driver.
