Synopsis
A chilling comment on the nuclear age, which descends into a manic world of surrealism and science fiction. An American visiting England falls in love with the sister of a sadistic motorbike gang leader, who drives them away with his threats. The pair retreat to a hideaway in a dank cave beneath a military base, where a group of strange, abandoned children become their surrogate family. However, the children hide a grim and fatal secret.
