After eradicating Night Rider's followers in
Mad Max (1979),
former patrolman Max Rockatansky now scavenges for food and precious
petrol on the deserted highways of an energy-starved Australia. Then,
Max stumbles upon a small oil refinery in the scorched wilderness;
however, there's a catch: the community of survivors is under siege by
brutal biker warlord Lord Humungus and his barbarian marauders. Now, to
get his hands on as much gas as he can carry, Mad Max will have to
provide the defenceless residents with a powerful truck. Using this
method, they can transport gasoline to safety. Of course, this is easier
said than done. Is the Road Warrior up to the task?
