Call it "Nukes in Toyland," outstanding eighties paranoia. There we are, minding our own business, when Communist SWAT teams parachute onto the elementary school playground and start blowing away safety-patrol officers. After eight or ten second-graders get sprayed with automatic weapons fire, the adolescent survivors go down to the Stop-n-Go and load up some Cokes and Twinkies and head off into the mountains to hide. It turns out that the Commie SWAT team leader is a Meskin who's been down in Salvador City shotgunning the peasants and kissing Fidel's hiney. He lands his copter in a small Colorado town and tells his men to get all the gun-registration records. See what happens when you don't listen to Charlton Heston? The high school kids make each other drink deer blood out of Dixie cups until they get tired of Beenie Weenies and go back to town for some Kennel Ration. But the Communists have taken over by then and sent everybody over to the drive-in(!) for "re-education." All day long they keep the parents penned up while they spout propaganda slogans like "America is a whorehouse" on the drive-in speakers, so the high school kids go back up into the mountains to make a plan, only on the way they stop at Ben Johnson's house and pick up two bimbos he's been hiding under his kitchen floor. Ben tells these guys he doesn't want his granddaughters getting raped by the Communists, so the guys take em along to kill some Russkies. Then the bimbos refuse to wash dishes like they're told, so they tell em at least they can make themselves useful and hide bombs in their bras or something, so they do start helping to annihilate the enemy. Next, a Russian tank blows away 20 red-blooded Americans WHILE they're singing "America." I do believe it's time for Kung Fu City. Kids start popping out of wheatfields to blow away pinkos, planting bombs in Commie trucks, and fighting heat-seeking Soviet missile launchers with single-shot deer rifles. They get some help when Powers Boothe gets shot down in his F-15 and tells em how Omaha, Washington and Kansas City got nuked, but fortunately nothing important was damaged. Then he gets em all together and they go attack the drive-in and play some touch football, and then they fight some Russian tanks, and then some Blue Thunder copters come and try to destroy the kids, resulting in:
In this one, Swayze is a road warrior in the desert, protecting a post-apocalyptic pretty farmer (Lisa Niemi, Swayze's wife in real life), from evil Anthony Zerbe (doesn't he ever play good guys?), and his henchmen / soldiers, who want her dirt farm for no apparent reason. At least we assume the setting is post-WW3, the script never bothers to say one way or another. Swayze wields a sword and wears leather. Critics called him a Mad Max wannabe, and audiences pretty much stayed home.
