About this movie

After World War III, water becomes a precious commodity in the desert community of Meridian. So much so, in fact, that when a controlling mob, led by the evil Damnil (Anthony Zerbe), takes over the town's supply, the good people fight back by hiring Nomad (Patrick Swayze), a peacekeeping warrior. Nomad is the only person who can put an end to the greed in this modern interpretation of the Western classic Shane.

Saw this when i was 10 and it was shown again at the bar post 30yrs old. Thought it was a patrick swayze type. Its the real guy. The shattering fact that paul scheer has not foisted this on the masses but subjected us to him and rob huebel on a bus is a sin against humanity. #cashORtrash
