2024: The Fourth World War - which lasted just five days, enough time
for the superpowers to release their fiercest missiles - has left the
earth a barren wasteland, with food a scarcity - mainly it's just canned
food dug up from what was once cities - & women even scarcer ... so if
you are a woman, the chances to get raped & killed are pretty high.
In this world, young Vic (Don Johnson) & his dog Blood (Tim
McIntire) are searching for women & food, which wouldn't be quite as
extraordinary if the 2 woulnd't share a telepathic link (or maybe that's
just in Vic's mind), with Blood pretty much being the smart one (& the
conscience) of the 2, while Vic hasn't got too much on his mind other than
finding a shag (which, as I mentioned above, is rather difficult in the
year 2024, even if you look like a young Don Johnson). What they don't
know though while drifting the countryside in search of the Priomised land
behind the hills, is that they are contantly watched ...
One day, at a cinema (actually a rundown place showing porn loops to
masturbating men), blood manages to sniff out a woman, whom curiously
enough, noone else seems to notice, & upon Vic's urging, he leads him
to her when she leaves, even if she retreats to an underground shelter
normally inhabited by the homicidal Screamers, who seem to be out only
currently. But that doesn't stop Vic, horny as hell, from following her,
despite Blood's warnings. Before he can even start to have sex with her,
the Screamers come back in dozens, & Blood & Vic have to fight for
their lives, but srill, Vic is unable to give the girl, Quilla June
(Susanne Benton), up ... could love be blooming.
Finally, Vic has managed to gun all the Screamers down & makes love
to Quilla June, who gives her body freely. But Blood is deeply hurt, not
only because Vic seems to more & more ignore him thanks to that woman,
but also because he was seriously injured fighting for his life.
After quite some lovemaking, Quilla June tries to persuade Vic to go
with her down under (not Australia but underground) where she & many
like her live, but he refuses out of consideration for Blood who would
have no place there ... so she knocks him out & leaves - but not
without leaving behind a key for him to go underground as well ...
Blood, his injuries getting worse by the day, urges Vic not to follow
the woman, as he smells a trap, but to no avail ...
Down under, Vic finds a strange world that resembles a pervertwed
parody of 1950's American suburbia, full of ever-parading brass-bands,
never ending Barb-Qs & continuously smiling people, all surveilled by
robots who bring every slight mis-conduct before the commitee (led by
Jason Robards) for punishment ... & soon it's Vic's turn to be
punished ... & his sentence is to impregnate the women of down under,
since the men here are impotent ... but unfortunately for him, not the
usual way but strapped to a rack & pretty much milked of his sperm by
some machine. & because this is a fairly old fashioned community, he
is marred to each of the girls who are to receive his sperm ...
But somehow, Quilla June manages to free him, & tells him the usual
shit about loving him & she didn't want it to end this way ... until
he finds out she doesn't speak her ture feelings but needs him to
overthrow the commitee to take its place. He however prefers to shoot his
way out of down under altogether, & Quilla June, realizing that her
plan for a coup d'état has blown into her face, follows him.
Outside, the 2 of them find Blood again, more dead than alive, but
Quilla June urges Vic to leave the dog behind, talking about how much she
loves Vic ... but Vic isn't wuite as sure anymore, & in the end he has
killed her & fed her to the dog, who thanks to the food gets better,
& the 2 of them walk off to search the Promised Land behind the hills
...
This synopsis might sound rather silly, but in fact the film is one of
the most intelligent sci-fi-movies of the 1970's, in a time when the
science fiction genre wasn't a mere vehicle for exlposions & computer
animations. A Boy and his Dog is a clever mix of post-doomsday pessimism
& dark satire, full of action but with a humane touch, & highly
entertaining throughout.
Highest recommendation, even if you don't like Don Johnson ... or dogs.
