The Quiet Earth

I just saw this, pretty entertaining film. Very ludicrous,
of course, but it had a certain charm that really made it a
good watch. Loved the ending too, I was fearing they'd mess
it up totally, but it was quite satisfactory.

Worthwhile 1 1/2 hours of entertainment!

*potential spoilers for anyone that hasn't seen it

That was a really cool movie, but like just about everything
I've ever seen with that ''last guy on earth'' premise, it
drops the ball halfway through and gets less interesting.
Before it introduces the other two characters tries to
explain everything, it alternates between haunting and
hilarious. The ending did wail, though.

i've only seen Solyaris before, and it's excellent. the
others look sweet, especially journey and fantastic planet.
i assume it will be hell to find some of these, at least
with english subs.

should be easy to find. try ebay if all else fails. I know
you might have to go VHS on 27th day and Lost Missile.

Fantastic Planet is a must.
then again so is Planet of the Vampires.
Mario Bava is ALWAYS worth checking out.
