Review of Damnation Alley (1977) by Noel Murray for The A.V. Club — 18 Apr 1983
Mostly the film just feels too skimpy. The first third is largely taken up in establishing the nuclear devastation of Damnation Alley’s world, leaving just an hour for the heroes’ perilous road trip across lands infested with what Peppard calls “killa cockroaches.
” By the time the action really gets cranking, the movie is half-over.
