This is the story of a boy, Vic (Don Johnson) and his dog Blood (Tiger), as they wander the post-apocalyptic wasteland (Kansas). A random encounter with a girl (well, not really) draws Vic into a subterranean society populated by the silliest-looking people once could imagine short of a clown school. Led by Lou Cradock (Jason Robards), the remnants of beloved Topeka have dark designs for Vic. Based on a story and with a screenplay written by the late, great Harlan Ellison, the film might be a bit silly from time to time but is still entertaining. As usual, the literary work is better (especially the ending), but the flavor it it is still there in the film.
