When I watched it, it reminded me of "The Matrix". Yes, it is the familiar core. Deconstructing our life through metaphors again and again, no matter what the ending is, it actually reveals a bit of pessimism and helplessness. PS: It turned out to be the heroine who played "Midnight Gatekeeper". She said that she was so familiar and her wife was so...

Although this film is a sci-fi, the costumes and pictures are quite primitive. The original Bond is almost in red pants, and there is a crooked 007 brave to enter the future world, but the essence of the film is acceptable. Sadus, who rules the earth, is actually man-made. Zed reads the book, knows the deception, and breaks into a place where life will last, bringing death to the...

John Bowman just borrowed the framework of dystopian stories to describe his views on life. Sex and death have become the beginning of reincarnation. Immortality and extreme technology will slowly deprive society of vitality and make people become walking dead. This point of view is vividly reflected in the carnage at the end, where the old world's death seeker greets his own death like a celebration, echoing Saddus's idea of guns and penises at the beginning of the film, with bullets pierced...

Excellent, it can definitely be selected as one of the most underrated good works in those years. Even if the plot is average, the philosophical concept in it is at least 30 years earlier, and I actually found the source of the refill action in it magically! ! ! It's amazing to have such an imagination in the 1970s. You really can't say it if you insist on comparing it to a space odyssey, and please look at the year 1974 and stop complaining about the...

[Self-translated Chinese word] Utopia, the Garden of Eden, has pursued longevity since ancient times, but it is better to go against nature than to die. At the end, it is sublimated with the second movement of...

Zed: What is it you want?
Friend: Sweet death. Oblivion.
Zed: For yourself, or for the whole Vortex?
Friend: For Everybody. An end to the human race. It has plagued this pretty planet for far too long.
Zed: You stink of despair. Fight back! Fight for death, if that's what you want.
Friend: I thought at first you were the one to help. But it's hopeless. All my powers have gone.
Zed: Where is it? The Tabernacle?
Friend: The Tabernacle... is... I can't remember!
Zed: Who made it? Someone must know how to break it.
Friend: Yes, but you can meet him for yourself! One of our founders, one of the geniuses who discovered immortality.
[Friend goes to the bed of the Old Scientist and, rousing him noisily, shouts]
Friend: We want to die! Hm? What - what's the trick?
Old Scientist: [feebly] Death... death... Talk to May! May!

[Zed stands before a giant screen swarming with microscopic infusoria]
May: Look at it. It's you.
[Zed looks behind him, but May does not see him do so]
May: Your genetic structure, your life chart. Look.
[Obligingly, Zed does so again]
May: You are a mutant, second, maybe third generation - therefore genetically stable. Enlarged brain, total recall. Your potential is... Your breeding potential!
Zed: Breeding?
May: Frayn!
[May spins around to confront Zed]
May: How did you get into the Vortex? What is your purpose?
Zed: I'm just an Exterminator. I know nothing.
May: You must know that you're mentally and physically vastly superior to me, or to anyone else here. You could be anything, could *do* anything. You must be destroyed.
Zed: Why?
May: Because you could destroy us!
Zed: As *you* destroyed the rest of life? Can you un-know what you know now about me?
May: For the sake of science, I will keep this knowledge from the others, for the time being. But you must follow me, obey me, be circumspect, make no disruption, quietly do whatever work is given you. I will watch over you.
