[edit] Synopsis
An enigmatic swordsman named Nomad (Patrick Swayze), finds himself in the smouldering remains of the post-World War III world, having lost his army squad in the war, stuck wandering through the desert in search of his mentor's killer, the assassin Sho (Christopher Neame). Nomad comes across a group of settlers in the town of Meridian. Damnil (Anthony Zerbe), a local landowner, and his murderous minions are sieging the town in order to gain a monopoly on the local water supply. Nomad stays at the farm of a local, Kasha (Lisa Niemi)—who is Nomad's love interest of the film—and teams up with Kasha's foreman Tark to become Meridian's "peacekeeper" to defend against Damnil and his forces, as well as giving him the opportunity for revenge against Sho.
