The world's water supply has dried up due to some sort of apocalypse. A beautiful woman holds the secret to where one of the last springs being guarded by a group of Amazons. A "Road Warrior" like crew captures her and tries to make her talk through brutal torture. The hero (Styrker) unites with some of the remaining "good guys" and the Amazons and frees the woman. They go on to a "Road Warrior" type of concluding battle with the bad guys. I only write reviews of movies with low rating, which actually are not that bad. Give them a chance!<br/><br/>I love movies about apocalypse and post-apocalypse and that is why I wanted to watch this one, too. It is a bad movie, but it is so bad that is actually watchable! Yup, I enjoyed it at the end. It is funny, though it was not suppose to be, and you can say that some action scenes are solid, too, as well as vehicles and costumes. Acting is fine for some characters, but nothing special. It is a Mad Max wannabe, and now while I am browsing IMDb I can see that director Cirio H. Santiago made several more Mad Max wannabes! Wow, he was really persistent! He made Wheels Of Fire two years after Stryker, and I think that it is a best bad Mad Max wannabe of all, but you can read about it more in my other review.<br/><br/>So, about Stryker, you may enjoy it if you like apocalypse and post- apocalypse. Or if you want to watch something bad with friends so you can laugh - then, Stryker is the movie for you. You need to look at it that way so that you can watch it to the end, like I did. I can say I enjoyed watching it, it was so bad and unintentionally funny that I liked it.<br/><br/>5/10 Where is the dialogue? There are periods in this film when no one speaks for like five minutes. I can't get over how bad this film is, but I really enjoyed it nonetheless.<br/><br/>I bought it .75 cents on EBay, and was surprised how entertaining it was. This film has a certain comic book feel to it, although it borrows the same premise from Mad Max.<br/><br/>Steve Sandor, the hero, is a big dude and handles the role well, but William Ostrander of Red Heat outshines him. The villains were all laughable, and you knew Sandor would have little trouble defeating them The flashback scenes were the worst I have ever seen.<br/><br/>A must have for the "It's so bad it's good crowd."
