George Miller’s post-apocalyptic saga offers few refuges of near-civilization to its doomed characters. Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome introduces us to Bartertown, one these few heartless oases.
Robbed of almost everything in the desert by a clever pilot, Max finds his way to Bartertown with only one thing to trade—death. Proving his skill in an impromptu ambush/audition, Max makes a deal with Bartertown boss Aunty Entity (Turner) to assassinate her rival Master Blaster.
But Master Blaster isn’t just a man, but two men: there is the mechanical adept The Master (Angelo Rossitto) and the physically powerful man who carries him around, The Blaster (Paul Larsson). When Max comes close to accomplishing his mission but learns more about the nature of The Blaster, things go sideways between Max and Aunty.
