In a desolate, retro-futuristic wasteland of 1997, a lonely orphan known only as The Kid Munro Chambers survives by scavenging the ruins for scraps of comic books starring his hero, Turbo Rider. His bleak existence is upended when he meets the relentlessly cheerful and strangely resourceful Apple Laurence Leboeuf, a pink-haired free spirit who appoints herself his sidekick. Their budding friendship is tested when they draw the wrath of the sadistic warlord Zeus Michael Ironside, who rules the apocalyptic landscape with an iron fist. Discovering a mysterious artifact that could be the key to fighting back, The Kid must embrace the comic book heroics he idolizes and transform into a real-life champion. A riotous, blood-soaked love letter to 80s pop culture, this action-adventure comedy splatters its post-apocalyptic canvas with vibrant energy, BMX bikes, and makeshift weaponry, pitting youthful hope against tyrannical cruelty in a fight for the future.
