Description
Cast: Don Johnson, Susanne Benton, Jason Robards
After the devastation of World War V, a sex-starved young man and his telepathic dog meet a girl from the underground. Adapting Harlan Ellison’s 1969 novella, celebrated character actor Jones doubles down on a deeply disturbed vision of “America 2024”. This post-apocalyptic sci-fi cult classic is a sardonic and influential precursor to Mad Max and that film’s many imitators.
