In a bleak, near future the forces of law and order are barely able to suppress a reckless bedlam rampaging on the highways of the state. Weary and disgusted, supercop Gibson retires but returns with a purpose to avenge the murder by marauding bikers of his wife and child. Violent stuff with death-defying stunt work.
