Reviews

Kevin Thomas wrote in the Los Angeles Times on December 9, 1996 that the film was "a dull, apocalyptic would-be thriller". Pyun has almost no story to tell. Thomas only praised the “imaginative” camera work.

The lexicon of international films wrote that the film was "a headless, speculative piece of work that cannibalized the disintegration of the Eastern Bloc for its own purposes". He is "staging and acting on a breathtakingly bad level". Only the camera work is bearable, which, however, could not save the "bungling film".

The magazine Cinema described the "apocalyptic horror thriller" with the words: "Dull and boring the last crap!" The "scrap master" Albert Pyun created "another brutal, senseless action flick with a high disgust rate".

backgrounds

The film was shot in Mostar ( Bosnia-Herzegovina ), Vukovar ( Croatia ) and in a studio in Slovakia . It grossed around 37.5 thousand US dollars in selected US cinemas . The film was released directly on video in some countries such as Portugal and Germany. In Germany in May 1997.
