This is a slow yet awesome dystopian movie where George Lucas's potential is clearly shown in depicting a sterile future devoid of sex and emotions. The journey taht THX 1138 takes in order to get out of the area is also enthralling yet very mysitcal especially with the creepy background music. Lucas has indeed pleased the audience with a cult yet very memorable movie about how the future may be like, where we are just treated like bar codes by society, and that we all look very unattractive and similar to each other.
