Zac Hobson wakes up to find that he is apparently the only person left on Earth. Soon, however, he meets others - Joanne, a pretty young woman, and Api, a huge Maori tribesman. They survived the apocalypse (a malfunction of a government project in which Zac was involved) because all three were at the moment of death--Zac's attempted suicide, Joanne's exploding hair dryer, Api fighting with another man--when the apocalypse occurred. Soon, however, Zac and Api begin fighting over Joanne, and the trouble begins...

[recording his audio log] Zac Hobson: Zac Hobson, July 5th. One: there has been a malfunction in Project Flashlight with devastating results. Two: it seems I am the only person left on Earth.
-

Movie Trivia:
- The scene where Bruno Lawrence is aimlessly wandering the empty streets of the city blowing on a saxophone was an in-joke to those who knew him, as he had once stolen one when he was young, but later felt guilty and returned it.
-
The vehicle that Joanne (Alison Routledge) steals when she goes after Zac and Api is a Holden Torana LJ (1972-73).
-
The white Toyota Hilux pickup truck that Zac drove was one of two brand-new 4wd trucks that Toyota of New Zealand gave to the production.
-
The air crash was filmed at an abandoned fertilizer factory.
-
Producer Sam Pillsbury's sister was responsible for trucks and other vehicles and setting them up the crashes that Zac sees.
