[DallasBiff]

Saw this as a teenager at a drive-in, scared the hell out of me but it had some rack moments.

[x]

Bah! Too much like real life.

[Openurmind]

Is that Nixon over his shoulder?

[mitch5501]

Great flick! Didn’t stick strictly to the book but still a good movie.

[ken in texas]

Yes, though I'm not sure if that was actually in the movie or not. According to the trivia info on IMDB (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074812/trivia/?ref_=tt_trv_trv):

When the Old Man is showing Logan some of the portraits that used to hang on the walls of the Capitol, a portrait of former President Richard Nixon was originally included, with the line "They used to call him tricky... something." According to Michael Anderson, the gag was considered too controversial at the time.

[The Duke]

But the book didn’t have Farah Fawcett! :)

[Openurmind]

I see, thank you, embedded on purpose as background set humor. Mel Brooks and Quentin Tarantino are good about doing that background stuff. lol

Jenny Gutter

[Mr. Mojo]

“Starting Farrah Fawcett”

Unfortunately she was in it for maybe 3 minutes.

[Bounced2X]

Great movie.
Carrousel .. RENEW

[The Louiswu]

I always got the feeling that LR is a weak rip off of Arthur C Clarkes, City and The Stars

[ifinnegan]

Yes. Jenny Agutter.

[Bounced2X]

Yes. Jenny Agutter.
Jenny Gutter

Yep. Beautiful

[Oberon]

THERE IS NO SANCTUARY

[Farmerbob]

terminated in a quasi-religious ceremony known as “carrousel”

~250 years before it was called “vaccination”.

[BenLurkin]

"You killed all those Runners, why?"

"It's my job!"

[TribalPrincess2U]

Yes, and that’s a movie I’ll never forget.
Given a little more time I don’t doubt that it will happen for real
or something just as bad.

That and the one where people in vehicles ran over others. Some were worth more than others. Can’t remember all of it, but I do remember it was terrible and to think it could happen again....OMG!

[TribalPrincess2U]

You are right! The nuts think only they will survive.

I saw this for the first time when I was eleven years old. At that time, the plot, action and SFX were what drew me. When I watched it again later in adulthood, the SFX hadn’t aged well but I still appreciated it for other reasons, namely the performances and chemistry of the cast. Nothing like staggering half-cut down the street after closing time with some friends shouting, “Fish, and plankton. And sea greens, and protein from the sea. It’s all here, ready. Fresh as harvest day!”
