Basically a take on the zombie theme, but this time the creatures are not mindless meat eaters. Instead, they're diseased humans that are sensitive to light who just want to get rid of the last vestiges of the technology that made them the way they are. Who can blame them?
The whole production is so hilariously 70s that it's hard not to just sort of fall into that world. From the huge afros to the aviator glasses that practically cover the entire face, the clothing and the slang, it's a lot of fun.
I remembered that there was something that I didn't like about this movie, so when I saw it again it came back to me. The soundtrack has got to be one of the worst ever. It just doesn't fit the movie at all.
A scifi classic. See this in a double feature with the related movie, I Am Legend. And read the book by Richard Matheson!
