Is this the original? If so, then highly recommended. It shows what can be accomplished with a small budget and a big concept.

There are one or two other films from that series which would be great to see again if they can be tracked down. Supposedly the tapes were not retained.

That was a bizarre movie.

It used to be hard to get this film on the Net.

Thank you!

Of all things, a PBS production. After it aired, the master tapes were destroyed, so this is a recreation made from video cassette tapes. The original is much better than the remake, starring James Caan.

It is an obligatory watch, along with the Orson Welles narrated “Future Shock” (short).

Movies made for a short time in the 1970s, some of which are remarkably politically incorrect by today’s standards.

I remember seeing that on PBS back around 1980 or so! When all people on earth turned one shade of grey you could still tell the races apart! (Opps? Did I give something away?)
