Watch The Aftermath For Free

Very disappointing...

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Astronauts Newman (a solid and sincere performance by Steve Barkett) and Matthews (well played by Larry Latham) return to Earth only to discover that a nuclear holocaust has caused civilization to collapse and subsequently degenerate into a harsh barbaric state. Newman must protect himself and several other people from the evil Cutter (Sid Haig in fine nasty form) and his gang of vicious outlaw bikers. Writer/director Barkett maintains a tough gritty tone throughout (for example, both women and children are brutally killed), relates the engrossing story at a snappy pace, stages the exciting action set pieces with flair, and delivers a chilling "adapt or die" central message. The moments of raw violence and stark savagery pack a fierce punch. The special effects are quite good considering the modest budget. Moreover, the fetching Lynne Margulies provides plenty of spark as the plucky Sarah, Forrest J. Ackerman has a small, but memorable role as a dying museum curator, and Dick Miller's voice can be heard on a tape recorder. The sharp cinematography by Dennis Skotak and Thomas F. Denove gives this picture an impressive polished look. John W. Morgan's robust score hits the rousing spot. An on the money indie winner.

Saying this thing sucks is an understatement. I mean using Nuclear and Biological weapons in WWIII is way over kill. SPOILER WARNING: Both Astronaughts are killed leaving a 10 year kid alone in this violent deadly wasteland. That's why it fails!!!!On a scale of 1 to 10 stars (10 Being Best) I give AFTERMATH, THE -100 STARSOn The Positive Side: Good Model Work (The Devistated Cities look real)One The Negative Side: EVERYTHING ELSE!!!!!!!!

This movie is pretty entertaining really. It borrows from The Planet of the Apes, The Omega Man or The Last Man on Earth, and The Stand among others (although every movie borrows from something). Yet the movie still has a style all its own and while it is mostly a very funny movie that was supposed to be serious, it does offer a bit of creativity. Has several scenes that most directors would not have included, that's not a bad thing. A good movie for the fatalist. Worth watching for everyone else. Except kids I guess, there are some scenes of gore. (head explodes, a knife through the head via the eye, lots of bullets flying, dead bloody kid, mutants, and decayed bodies).

yes, total vomit, if I was in this movie, I would be totaly ashamed of it...This is a good example of how NOT to make a movie1) poor quality video 2) crap effects 3) cheap shots 4) lauhable acting / scenes 5) totaly unrealistic, people get shot in the legs and can still walk! 6) shocking sums it upOnly watch this if you want to laugh at a crud movie I give it 0.00000000000001
