Genesis II (1973), Planet Earth (1974), and Strange New World (1975)
Okay. Let’s get this out of the way: This is the movie were you video fringe horndogs lose it over Mariette Hartley (as Lyra-A) in a two-piece bikini sporting two belly buttons (a dual circulatory system with two hearts) as a (network censored) “dominatrix” who breeds men for an oppressive, feminist regime. Gulp. Yes. Mariette […]
The Prodigal Planet (1983)
Remember our friend David? Well, he didn’t die at the end of Image of the Beast. No, he’s back and ready to battle the forces of UNITE one more time. He’s rescued by Connie, an Antichrist agent pretending to be a double agent for the Believers’ Underground, who hopes that David can lead them to the […]
The Terror Within (1989)
There’s a subset of maniacs who want to see movies where women are impregnated by aliens and give messy and brutal birth to them. Trust me, there’s no other way Inseminoid and Galaxy of Terror would all come up with the same concept if there wasn’t a willing audience for this sort of thing. Now you can […]
Hell Comes to Frogtown (1988)
Donald G. Jackson sure made a lot of post-apocalyptic films. Roller Blade, Roller Blade Warriors: Taken by Force, The Rollerblade Seven, The Legend of the Rollerblade Seven, Return of the Rollerblade Seven and three different movies in the Helltown series. He also made I Like To Hurt People, a movie all about pro wrestling. These things would all come together […]
The Atomic Dust Bin: 10 Post-Apocalyptic Films You Never Heard Of: Part 1
Courtesy of the Italian and Philippine film industries creating a post-apocalyptic cottage industry — the ‘80s pasta-apocalypse — with their seemingly endless replications of the futuristic-western visions of George Miller’s Mad Max and John Carpenter’s Escape from New York, along with Charlton Heston’s The Omega Man and Soylent Green initiating a post-apoc boom in the […]
Image of the Beast (1980)
This is the third of a series of films that began all the way back with A Thief In the Night. After two movies that focused on Patty, this movie brings in David, who is a Christian guerrilla battling the UNITE forces. While the first two films just dealt with the beginning of the end times, […]
The People Who Own the Dark (1975)
Not only is it post-apoc month at B&S Movies, Sam’s also reviewed a few Paul Naschy movies for the Drive-In Super Monster-Rama recently held outside of Pittsburgh. And . . . Paul Naschy did a post-apoc movie. Yes, that’s right: Paul Naschy, the King of Spanish Horror, and the post-apocalypse, together, in one film. The […]
The Sisterhood (1988)
Cirio H. Santiago, so many of your movies have crossed my path. You pretty much owned the market when it came to post-apocalyptic films made in the Phillipines, thanks to movies like Raiders of the Sun, Dune Warriors, Equalizer 2000, Wheels of Fire and Stryker. (And we can’t forget the majesty that is Firecracker and the Jaws rip, Demon of […]
No Blade of Grass (1970)
. . . Cue the obligatory, budget-conscious voice over-photo montage (bellowing smokestacks, animal carcasses, muddy water, etc.) of a ravaged Earth (in the “future” of 1972; again “budget”) as we learn about a disease that devours the Asian continent and lays waste to all members of the grass-grains family, such as corn, rice, wheat, and […]
A Distant Thunder (1978)
Remember when Patty jumped off a dam rather than get the Mark of the Beast? Yeah, well six years later, she’s still alive and about to be executed the next morning for refusing to take the Mark. Even though Patty knows what lies ahead if she takes the Mark, she still can’t believe in a […]
