The Bestest B-Movie Scrolling Quotes
"The Third World War left the planet shrouded in a pall of radioactive dust, under skies lurid and angry, in a climate gone insane."
I cracked up watching the first few scenes of "Damnation Alley," a 70's movie wherein the denizens of a U.S. nuclear silo manage to launch a counter strike with less drama and emotion than if Mr. Spock been 100% Vulcan. I especially loved the attempt to be poignant after depicting the nuclear apocalypse from clips of nuclear tests with the movie equivalent of "It was a dark and stormy night" scrolling across the screen.
The first post-apocalyptic scene starts with the former nuke-button key-turner motorcycling past human-size scorpions with a female blow-up doll in tow, and that's when I had to say "basta ya!" I mean were all movies from thirty years ago in "StonerVision" (TM)?
