Man Called Rage (1984)

Set in a post-nuclear society, Rage concentrates on a band of refugees in search of the elusive-and possibly inhabited--Alpha Base. Tooling about in 1940s-vintage automobiles, the survivors steal a map from the resident villain and embark on a perilous journey. In On the Beach fashion, they learn that the radio signals emanating from Alpha Base are not of human origin. Still, they find an unexpected source of salvation for mankind. Conrad Nichols stars as Rage, head of the ragtag group, while Taida Urruzola is the underclad heroine. The "Anthony Richmond" credited with the direction is actually Tonino Ricci. Completed in 1984, Rage was released in the US two years later. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
