20 Mad Max Rip Offs You Need To See

5. Steel Frontier

Bronx Warriors
Concorde

Part ultra-cheap western, part ultra-cheap post-apocalyptic fantasy, Steel Frontier casts the late Brion James as the head of an outlaw gang who, for no particular reason, terrorize everyone they meet, but he meets his match in Yuma, a 21st century gunslinger.

The supporting villains are played by Kane Hodder and Bo Svenson, so it’s a shame that, in the lead, Joe Lara looks and acts more like Michael Bolton than Clint Eastwood, but if you can forgive that, it’s an entertaining enough ride.
