No Blade of Grass

What a daring, and visionary topic, not at all desuet, as some reviews say. I fell in love with this film made by Cornel Wilde, some kind of Mel Gibson before its time. Both were - are - directors as actors, both directed movies emphasizing on cruelty and violence: NAKED PREY, BEACH RED, LANCELOT AND GENUIEVRE for Wilde and BRAVEHEART, PASSION OF THE CHRIST, APOCALYPTO, HACKSAW RIDGE; don't you see any parallels, more or less same topics (medieval, war films, or a man hunt scheme )...Same tendancies to make what they wish to show to audiences.... I though admit that MAD MAX lead has not made any ecological film yet as this one.... Anyway, this feature was a great surprise for me. I nearly prefer it to SOYLENT GREEN. It is only a shame that it is not as widely known. You are dealing here with a non Hollywoodian film, violent, gloomy but after all in the right mood of the early seventies. It may be shocking for many audiences. That's why I love it. One of Cornel Wilde's best, besides LANCELOT...and NAKED PREY. As I said in this review tite, I would have perfectly imagined zombies plague in this story, to be totally adequate to today's movies tendancies...
