In the year 2037, the future is in the hands of a genetically engineered boy: Mati (Gabriel Damon, RoboCop 2) a child-genius with a brain programmed by a brilliant and evil doctor (Jürgen Prochnow, Dune... in three deliciously crazy roles). Mati is the master of a sadistic cross-country rally (with a 100 million dollar prize that no one has ever won), controlling "Monster", a gigantic A.I. operated storm truck that rumbles across the continent, while being pursued by a squad of rebels determined to stop "Monster" before it reaches the "End of the Line".
Karen Allen (Raiders of the Lost Ark), Julie Glenn (Betty Fisher) and the legendary Johnny Hallyday (the French rock-n-roll singer famously known as the "French Elvis") are all along for the ride in this fast-paced, action-packed "Mad Max" inspired futuristic adventure!

Press Quotes
One of the campiest classics you're ever likely to come across... the filmmakers put in a great deal of effort and it shows...the visual effects are spectacular and the movie is just pure fun.

I'm delighted that I got to see Terminus... Terminus is so 1980's sci-fi it hurts... a hilariously bad - but nonetheless enjoyable in its awfulness - movie. I'm still deliriously happy to have it now in my collection.
