Overview
Only a few people still live in New York in 2012. They are organized in gangs with their own turf. One of them is led by Baron, another one by Carrot, and they are constantly at war with each other.
MovieMagicScore Overview
Auto-generatedRobert Clouse directs this 1975 science-fiction action thriller set in a near-future New York reduced to ruin, where dwindling survivors cluster into rival gangs fighting over scarce resources and territory. Lean and grim, it channels dystopian dread into a tale of survival, leadership, and conflict among the desperate. The tone is bleak and gritty, picturing collapse rather than gleaming futures. With a MagicMovieScore of 5.7, it is geared toward fans of vintage post-apocalyptic cinema, urban-decay survival stories, and 1970s genre fare that imagines civilization's breakdown and the brutal struggles that follow when order disappears.
