End-of-the world fetishist Roland Emmerich executive-produces this formula piece on isolated survivors of an environmental catastrophe where solar activity has caused temperatures to shoot up, turning the world to desert. They are trying to reach the mountains where greenery and water are rumoured to still exist, but of course post-apocalyptic scenarios routinely require humans to be bastards to each other too and this chucks a group of Deliverance-style feral hicks in their way just in case starving or burning to a crisp weren't sufficient perils. It hobbles along and then evaporates utterly from the memory as the closing credits roll.
