Warning: Spoilers
A plague killed most of the grown-ups and the world is filled with orphans. Some adults did live, like Albert (James Earl Jones). He raises Lee (John Stockwell) who grows up and heads out to L. A. to join the Clippers, who are led by Mick (Darrell Larson) and his second in command Whitey (John Diehl). They refuse to let him in. When they send him away with Yogi (Rae Dawn Chong), he defends her from the DAs, another gang, and breaks the no guns rule. It's decided that instead of giving him to Ray (Danny De La Paz), that troop's boss, he will fight their best soldier one on one. Lee defeats the female DA and joins the gang.

There's also a worker from a corporation named Sunya named Wickings (Kim Cattrall) who wants the gangs to work to make the city livable. There's also some intrigue with Whitey being killed by DAs Bolo (Norbert Weisser) and Carver (Robby Benson).

Of course, by the end, everyone goes back to Albert's farm, Lee and Wickings fall in love and everyone battles the corporation. Even at the end of the world, biker gangs learn to work together, making their own company and taking over Los Angeles for their own needs.

Director Aaron Lipstadt also made Android. When this played Mystery Science Theater, the title for the film is red text displayed on a black background. At least the end - unlike every FVI movie on the show - uses footage from the movie it is on.
