Have made no secret in the past of intensely disliking, and even outright hating a lot, a vast majority of The Asylum's (near-universally maligned for good reason) output, though there is curiosity as to whether they are capable of making something good and compulsive about their output's badness. Admittedly, The Asylum do have a small group of watchable films and the occasional (big emphasis on that word) above average one, unfortunately outweighed by the lacklustre at best and often dreadful films they churn out.

'Road Wars' is a mock-buster of 'Mad Max: Fury Road'. Although one of its year's most positively reviewed films critically, like several acclaimed films it seems it's garnered some at times vitriolic hate. If those that disliked 'Fury Road' watched 'Road Wars' out of curiosity it is more than likely that they'll appreciate that film more once seeing 'Road Wars'. While not quite one of The Asylum's all-time worst everything bad about their output is present and it's basically an abomination that shows no shame it seems in being as bad as it is.

1/10 is not a common rating for me these days and generally try to be encouraging and balanced when reviewing. There have been a fair share of films seen that have deserved the rating and look as though they didn't even try, other than wasting good actors that is one of film's biggest cardinal sins for me. That's the case with 'Road Wars'.

As expected, 'Road Wars' is cheap, and that's being generous, visually, even for something made on a low budget. It's very drably and sometimes dizzyingly shot, incoherently edited (bacon-slicer-like) with glaring and unforgivably sloppy continuity errors and even the scenery doesn't make much impression despite being actually the least bad aspect of the film. There are worse special effects in other Asylum films, they still look very cheap though and like they were an afterthought and made in haste. Am aware of the film being low-budget, but there are examples of low-budget films that still don't look awful and manage to be pretty good.

Can remember little about the music, which tended to be intrusive, annoying and out of place. The script makes little sense, sounds awkward constantly and on the wrong side of camp throughout.

There is absolutely nothing thrilling, tense, suspenseful, emotionally investable or fun about the story. The predictability may have been forgivable if the film was actually engaging let alone exciting but it fails to be either throughout. 'Road Wars' is basically non-stop dullness and intelligence-insulting ridiculousness, with unintentional humour because of the excessive cheese, too much often extraneous talk and not enough action and extremely flat and irritating character writing.

Its incredibly dreadful with no exceptions acting from a cast that wouldn't even pass for Z-grade is one of the film's worst assets.

Overall, really poor. 1/10 Bethany Cox

A man approaches a group of survivors in an apocalyptic world. They wing him with a shot and are surprised to find him a normal human suffering from amnesia. Water is scarce. It hasn't rained since forever and the group guards the only known source of clean water. The world is overtaken by viral zombies which come out at night to attack. The amnesic man may actually be immune from the zombie virus and possibly the salvation of the human race. Nakada has smuggled in her infected boyfriend Kevin.

This is a Road Warrior wannabe. It's noticeable that I don't know many of their names. These characters are one dimensional and expandable. It's a cheap exploitation B-movie done without the fun exploitation. Somebody dressed up a few vehicles and had some fun playing Road Warrior. It isn't much more than that.

Asylum mockbuster of "Mad Max." Girls with excessive eye make-up, water and gas at a premium, folks living in the desert, demolition derby vehicles. Add in Zombies known as Night Runners and Day Walkers. One guy appears to be immune and human factions in conflict. Occasional grindhouse soundtrack, cardboard characters. People with various accents. A lot of talking and riding in a car. Spend the money and watch "Mad Max..." instead.
