Trivia
Larry Clark said HBO aired the film the way he made it but he had to edit it to get an R rating for the DVD release. The MPAA forced him to take out most of the orgy and one line of dialogue, "I squirted," He argued with them to no avail. He almost tried to have his name taken off it but decided it wasn't worth the effort. He called MPAA head Jack Valenti "a fucking drunk" in interviews.

Quotes
Judith: How did the song go? Looking forward to a little "afternoon delight?"
Vincent: I want some delight!
Neil: They don't know what you're talking about, Judith. That's one good thing about the end of the world. No more easy listening.

The best Larry Clark sci-fi picture to date

Don't listen to the individual who was upset by the profanity and sacrilege in this movie. If those bother you you may also not like the many drunken teenage orgy scenes, the graphic decapitation, the naked chick who explodes, etc.

But I mean, how many people are there out there who don't enjoy that type of picture? Not many, obviously. Let's be real here. So anyway. What makes this picture special is that it's from the sleazy arthouse director Larry Clark (KIDS, ANOTHER DAY IN PARADISE, BULLY) and contains all the usual subject matter and style of his pictures, ye with a postapocalyptic warrior tribe, and Stan Winston effects where after the orgy they turn into lumpy monsters and fight each other.

This is a stupid movie with some really bad acting by the villain and the usual corny dialogue but if you enjoy Larry Clark pictures, as all of us do, obviously, then you will get a kick out of it. It's such an unnatural combination of style and subject matter that it is what you might call "a hoot." Unless you don't like to have a good time, you will probaly like this picture.
