Review

This is such an odd movie, starting with one brutal act, and ending with another...and full of even more. I enjoyed this movie, despite the totally twisted and bizarre story, and really want to get my hands on the story it was based on. I highly recommend this to anyone who likes post-apocalyptic survival type movies. This is one I kind of want to add to my permanent collection, and will defini... read more

A Boy and His Dog

A cult dystopian vision that takes the “boy and his dog” and wraps it up in black humor and crotch-minded salaciousness. I’m not sure if I enjoyed it, hated it, found it charming, or more quixotic in my estimation, but I know A Boy and His Dog is unlike anything else I’ve seen. Don Johnson is a perpetually horny wanderer in a bombed-out wasteland where canned goods are the new currency and... read more

Description: World War IV has ravaged the Earth, and its survivors must battle for food, shelter, and companionship in a postatomic wasteland. This classic sci-fi tale follows the exploits of a young man, Vic (Don Johnson), and his telepathic dog, Blood, as they struggle through the barren wilderness. In the midst of their meager existence, foraging for scraps of food and battling ruthless gangs, Vic and Blood encounter a young woman who lures them into a surreal city deep beneath the earth’s surface. Based on the award-winning novella by acclaimed science-fiction author Harlan Ellison, A BOY AND HIS DOG is a dark, twisted, and offbeat tri ... (more)

Mustanaamio7's Movie Diary 2024 (88 movies items)

"18.4. 2024 What will 2024 be like? Hopefully not as bad as depicted in this 1975 science fiction film, but all the real-life conflicts and climate change give several reasons to be concerned. The main character of "A Boy and His Dog" is not any kind of an hero, but a confused individual who just wants to satisfy his selfish needs in the harsh apocalyptic world. He also has a dog called Blood and they communicate with each other telepathically. The plot is pretty thin and straight-forward, but t"

A Boy and His Dog

“A cult dystopian vision that takes the “boy and his dog” and wraps it up in black humor and crotch-minded salaciousness. I’m not sure if I enjoyed it, hated it, found it charming, or more quixotic in my estimation, but I know A Boy and His Dog is unlike anything else I’ve seen. Don Johnson is a perpetually horny wanderer in a bombed-out wasteland where canned goods are the new currency and ultraviolence is the way of the land. Did I mention he’s also capable of telepathically communicating with his pet dog? And that he uses his dog’s ability to sniff out potential sexual partners? It’s a wild little movie that’s much better in the first half than it is in the second. The second finds our hero stumbling onto an underground society and things quickly unravel in it as the sava” read more

"When you’re living in a scorched-earth hellhole where canned goods replace money and violence is the lingua franca, getting laid may not be your first natural instinct. But that’s what makes this bizarre, low-budget satire based on a Harlan Ellison novella so effective. Vic (a pre-Miami Vice Don Johnson) is a perpetually horny teenage itinerant who speaks telepathically with his dog Blood. When an underground group needs a sperm donor to repopulate their society, Vic is happy to offer his se"
