Have you seen Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior?  If not, ask the people who produced this movie about it.  They seem to have studied it fairly closely...

Wheels of Fire looks like a heady mix of Mad Max 2, Mad Max 2, softcore pornography and Mad Max 2.  With the addition of the Morlocks from H.G. Wells' The Time Machine running about on a bridge.

A huge cast of extras and some fairly impressive looking car smashes feature alongside some utterly appalling acting.  Has there ever been a post-apocalyptic daytime soap opera?  If not, I've no idea where they found the cast for this.

Incidentally, what is going on around 1:38?  It looks like the beginnings of a very odd sex scene indeed.

Favourite bit:  The hero apparently jumping off a twenty-foot-high tower and landing safely by slightly bending his knees.
