Trivia
Kathleen Kinmont said she took the starring role in this non-union film because the producers said it would only be released in Europe. It was shot in the Mojave desert, and she was paid $50 per day, barely enough to cover her gas. When it was shown on HBO and released on video in the U.S., she almost lost her Screen Actors Guild membership. She also didn't make any money from the U.S. distribution.

Errores
Early scene with topless women luxuriating in the cascade of a waterfall. Although the story is set several generations after an apocalyptic event, leaving a mere handful of survivors in a Mad Max type of hellscape, one of the women obviously has silicone implants.

Citas
Reverend Mother: How does it feel to be the last man on Earth?
Guy: How does it feel to be the ugliest thing around?

Poor Persis Khambatta

Poor Persis Khambatta. This stunningly beautiful actress did not leave us with a long (or even a short) catalogue of exceptional films. She will always be remembered as the Deltan Lieutenant Ilia in 1979's "Star Trek: The Motion Picture" (which, let's face it, wasn't that great of a movie either), but other than that, she appeared in a handful (12, to be exact) of films that were mostly eminently forgettable. And none of them was more forgettable than "Phoenix: The Warrior," aka "Warriors of the Wasteland." As one of the film's thumbnail summaries puts it, "Big hair, big guns and a serious lack of wardrobe. A post-apocalyptic story that features women who leave little to the imagination as they do battle in junkyards and gravel pits."

It's tough to review a movie when what's bad about it is everything. Where do you start? The preposterously nonsensical plot? The hopelessly flat-footed dialogue? The even more hopelessly amateurish acting? The grotesque hair? The clownish makeup? The hysterically skimpy costumes? The bad-home-movie production values?

Why did Khambatta take this role? Was it to pay the bills? Was it the only work she could get, at least in the States? It's so sad: She had a disastrous combination of a chain-smoking habit and bad genes that led to her needing a coronary bypass operation at the age of 35. Despite the operation, she went on to die of a massive heart attack only 10 years after she made this dismal dog of a movie. R. I. P.
