In the near future, drive-in theatres are turned into concentration camps for the undesirable and unemployed. The prisoners don't really care to escape because they are fed and they have a place to live which is, in most cases, probably better than the outside. Crabs and his girlfriend Carmen are put into the camp and all Crabs wants to do is escape.
Movie Tagline:
There's a party every day, a movie every night, and all the junk food you can eat. What more can a kid want... except to get out.

On the audio commentary for the Region 1 DVD, director Brian Trenchard-Smith states that U.S. distributor New World Pictures originally planned to follow the example set by American International and their release of MAD MAX by issuing the movie with a new voice track featuring American performers revoicing the Australian actors. However, the dubbing turned out so poorly, the company decided to release the film with the original performances intact.
