It is celebrated for its 80s aesthetic, synth-pop soundtrack, and subverting the "damsel in distress" trope by featuring capable, gun-toting female protagonists.

The film stars Catherine Mary Stewart as Reggie and Kelli Maroney as Sam.

Directed by Thom Eberhardt, this 1984 film is a unique blend of "valley girl" comedy, post-apocalyptic horror, and science fiction.
