A DRATSCO presentation of a NELVANA production, with original songs written and performed by Cheap Trick, Debbie Harry, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, and Earth, Wind & Fire. Featuring the voices of Don Francks, Susan Roman, Paul Le Mat and Catherine O'Hara. Directed by Clive A. Smith, produced by Patrick Loubert and Michael Hirsh.

Introduction: "The War was over...the only survivors were street animals -- dogs, cats and rats. From them a new race of mutants evolved. That was a long time ago. Now Mok, a legendary superocker, has retired to Ohmtown -- a remote storm-ravaged village famous for its unique power-plant. It is here that Mok lays his plans for a comeback -- a great and final performance that will secure his immortality...and make him ruler of his world!"
