Movie Club: At the end of the world there will be Don Johnson
Posted: July 20th, 2010 | Author: Max Romero | Filed under: Uncategorized | Tags: Great Caesar's Movie Club | 4 Comments »Y’know, I was going to write something up about the next selection for Great Caesar’s Movie Club but the first line of the Netflix synopsis tells you all you need to know. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you:
A Boy and His Dog
“A young Don Johnson stars as Vic, who roams a postapocalyptic wasteland accompanied by his telepathic, ever-grumbling dog and eventually winds up in the clutches of a female-dominated underground society that wants his sperm.”
Let’s watch the hell out of this! (And it even looks like it’s available on YouTube, so no excuses!)
Now showing: A Boy and His Dog (1975)
Due date: Tuesday, Aug. 17
The deal: Write a review of this months’ selection, link it back to me and I’ll link back to you. Send me an e-mail or drop it in the comments so I know it’s there. Easy like Sunday mornin’.

Can non professionals join in the fun? This has been in my netflix streaming queue forever and I’ve been wanting to revisit it. This will give me the impetus I need to just watch the damn thing. Haven’t seen it since I was a kid, but with my soft spot for postapocalyptic fare, I imagine I’ll love it as much now as I did as a then.
Sorry I did not partake in the SupIII. I just, well, I just suck.
Never mind, just read the rules of play and that would require a damn web site. Of which I have none.
I loved this movie and the comic in the mid-80s. I want to say the adaptaion, Vic and Blood, was done by Strnad and Corben as a two issue mini. I’m certain about Corben’s art, but less sure of the writer.
Looking forward to revisiting it!
Woohoo! I remember strongly recommending this movie to someone.
