A surprisingly good sci-fi movie - even more surprising that it has not developed more of a following, re-make, or some other form of media using the setting. While Hamill is billed as the 'star' of this movie, it's really Bill Paxton that makes it truly enjoyable. The concept of a post-apocalyptic world changed by the force of the wind is moderately explained at the beginning, but wisely chooses to just ask the viewer to accept what it is and proceeds with the story. There's definitely a few plot points in the film that run against the grain of expectations, even if other elements are tried-and-true gimmicks of sci fi movies. Relatively low-budget, this film relies on the locations used more so than effects to give the illusion of strange new futuristic lands.

Really weird but most would like it. Mark Hamill plays the reverse of his normal role and Bill Paxton helps make this flick really weird!
