Radioactive Dreams is a good low-budget post-nuclear noir.
Directed by Albert Puyn (Dangerously Close, Cyborg etc.) Starring John Stockwell, Michael Dudikoff and the strong ladies Michele Little and Lisa Blount.
After an atomic war Phillip Hammer and Marlowe Chandler have spent 15 years on their own in an bunker, stuffed with junk from the 40s and old detective novels. Now, 19 years old, they leave their shelter to find a world full of mutants, freaks and cannibals. They become famous detectives in the struggle for the two keys that could fire the last nuclear weapon. (from IMDb)
This is highly entertaining flick, especially the last 30 minutes, and features a huge soundtrack!
Hereīs two great Sue Saad tunes, first oneīs a clip from the movie and someone has made a cool video for the theme song:
The soundtrack includes more Sue Saad stuff and a nice tracks from Jill Jaxx and Maureen Steele.
The movie has a very uplifting ending as the boys perform the funny post nuke shuffle. John "Phillip Chandler" Stockwell: "Itīs time to lighten up and enjoy the hand we was delt, good or bad, itīs the only life we got"

Everytime I see the name, Albert Pyun, my first reaction is to run in the opposite direction.... Posted by Lovers with Cassie (Member # 7794) on :

Good low-budget fun!

I can go for Cyborg, but that's it Posted by aTomiK (Member # 6575) on :
Radioactive Dreams will be released on dvd in Germany this spring. I hope that they will release more Pyun "classics" on dvd after this one.

aTomiK.. great thread!
This is a movie Muffy, Secret, and other members of our "Vicious Lips" fan club need to watch. It isn't quite as good in my opinion, but worth checking out for the soundtrack alone.
