    So, was the car in the video for the song, or in some other show/movie also called Damnation Alley?

    Inquiring minds want to know. :)

    Damnation Alley was a 1977 Movie. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0075909/

    A small group of survivors at a military installation who survived World War 3 attempt to drive across the desolate wasteland to where they hope more survivors are living. Hopefully their specially built vehicles will protect them
    against the freakish weather mutated plant and animal life and other dangers along the way.

    Thanks for the information. Sounds like something I might find on late
    night TV at some point. :)

    I never heard of this before but since Jan Micaheal Vincent (rip) is in it, it has to be worth watching...

    Once you've seen the Damnation Alley vehicles, you'll remember seeing them from many '70s TV shows. They got alot of milage out of those props (pun intended). They even converted some into space ships for Jason of Star Command.

    It's mind-boggling that an urban assult vehicle could be threatened by
    giant lobsters on a projection screen.

    I think they were used in the tv series ARK II ? That had some good visuals but the talking chimp always freaks me out.

    Damnation Alley is one of those films I'll sit and watch through whenever
    it's on the TV. The Landmaster was kind of silly as I look back, and I recall
    seeing it in several TV shows.

    The vehicle you're thinking of is the Ark II, which preceded the Landmaster. The Ark II was built of a standard military truck chassis, as you can see by the dual axles in the rear. The fiberglas body was removed and used as exterior shots for the shuttle in Space Academy and Jason of Star Command.
