Member Rating:  
A small but hardy band of survivors traverses a post-apocalypse American landscape in this sci-fi thriller. A horrific nuclear assault leaves only three survivors at an underground military facility, so Tanner (Jan-Michael Vincent), Denton (George Peppard), and Keegan (Paul Winfield) commandeer a special all-terrain land cruiser and head for Albany, NY, the only American city to be spared in the attack. As they travel through the desolate post-nuke wastelands, the soldiers pick up a beautiful woman (Dominique Sanda) and an incorrigible teenager (Jackie Earle Haley), as they battle huge mutant insects, packs of survivors turned violent and feral, and brutal electrical storms that savage the already barren plains. Damnation Alley was based on a novel by award-winning speculative fiction author Roger Zelazny. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

    Great 70s Sci-Fi movie. Remember seeing it as a kid and amazed at the effects at the time. Jan Micheal Vincent was cool back then. Nice to see it again on Blu-Ray!

    I liked the film, and viewing it again, is just as entertaining. Nice 70's apocalyptic film, sure it lacks all the glamour of today, but great film, simple and basic.
