Have you seen The Man From Earth? Get past the $7k (if that) budget and the fact that everyone except for the MC can’t act and it’s actually a revelation. Oh and it’s not strictly sci-fi either but The Quiet Earth’s title reminded me of it
why do people like that shit so much? the short story was decent to good, the movie is crap its just really badly done, its not unwatchable but its not good, conversely quite earth while suffering from similar problems is good genuinely great story well told well shot, on a tiny budget and a limited pool of actors
Good thing about ST:SNW is you can see that the bio pods the protag of Silent Running saved are attached to a space station in their credits sequence. Someone cared about Huey, Dewey and Louie.
yes yes I like snw worlds too, did notice that, honestly though I didn't care much for silent running, it insisted on itself, sets and props are gorgeous though
are there any of these "last person on earth" movies where the person is in fact the last person on earth. it always seems like they eventually have to introduce another character, usually conveniently a woman.
i mean even then youre introducing the possibility of there being someone. while writing this i thought of one actual example which is that Twilight Zone episode "Time Enough At Last". although that one is so short that it never really gets into the character searing far and wide for other people
thats hat I mean, their have been quite a few of these i've read, one it was vampire fluffy slippers, not kidding, the last man on earth would watch and wait but after time concentration would slip and that fur rug in the corner might just be a vampire furry slipper waiting for you to sleep

Watched this on a livestream with the Cinemaphile bros years ago when those kind of threads still existed was one of the funniest things ever
Haven't seen one of those threads in awhile, what happened to them?
we did kung pow yet again last week, this was a good thing
Cinemaphile is mostly phoneposting zoomers now, they don't contribute to our culture
A Boy and His Dog
>gives away the ending in the poster
Have you seen Star Wars?
What's it about?
family
I thought that's what those vin diesel car movies were about. Coronas and family
pretty sure they ripped of the star wars
No. Star wars ripped off the Vin Diesel car movies
ah well that makes more sense
I remember when this franchise was about busting drug gangs or sumshit.
Silent Running

The Quiet Earth
The Man Who Fell to Earth
Not a film but the documentary Chariots of the Gods makes you feel like earth is an alien planet.
thanks never heard about that crazy shit, dling it now
I watched this movie like 3 times and I still don't understand it. Especially the ending. What the frick happened?
huh? its very clearly explained all life was in the same instant moved to a different dimension, in the end the MC also does
also because the 3 characters died (temporarily) at that exact moment they didn't move

the shortest horror story ever

Bizarro fiction will rot your brain, anon.
Brian Lumley is a good chap. He has fun stories.
silent running, unless you consider the bots
