After a mysterious gas kills everyone on earth over the age of 25, a wisecracking hippy (Robert Corff) and his scientist girlfriend (Elaine Griftos) wander the lawless landscape of Texas and New Mexico in search of a pueblo commune where peaceful survivors are gathering. On the way they must contend with various run-amok youth cultures, including a raping and pillaging football team and a fascist country club run by golf-cart-driving Hells Angels. Ben Vereen, Cindy Williams, and Talia Coppola (before she was Talia Shire) costar as the fellow freaks who join the lovers on their odyssey. This gleefully irreverent counterculture comedy was one of the last films directed by Roger Corman. To link it with Corman's earlier horror works, Edgar Allan Poe appears on a motorcycle, while some free love under a wild light show recalls THE TRIP. Country Joe and the Fish did the psychedelic score and can be seen playing at a drive-in. For fans of 1960s fare such as WOODSTOCK, EASY RIDER, or the comedy of the Firesign Theater, this free-spirited film should definitely amuse and even inspire with its sharp wit and subversive idealism.
