DESCRIPTION:Friday Nov 24 at 7 PM - $5 gets you in. Presented by Shiny Object and Fools 
 Foundation. Location: Fools Foundation - 1025 19th St, Sacto. 19th & K - in 
 the alley, in the basement.\n\nFollow-up your Thanksgiving with this 1975 
 indie classic - what better way to celebrate the year in which Vic was born 
 than with a screening of the film based on Harlan Ellison's novella.  
 \n\nThe year is 2024.  World War IV, which only lasted 5 minutes, has long 
 been over, leaving behind a post-apocalyptic wasteland. 18-year old Vic 
 (Don Johnson in his first, and by far best, performance) wanders with his 
 dog, Blood, who communicates with him telepathically. The none-too-bright 
 Vic scavenges for food; the rather learned and sarcastically witty Blood 
 sniffs out women for sex.  Into this relationship comes Quilla, a woman 
 from "Down Under" - a supposedly idyllic underground society which attempts 
 to preserve the past.  Quilla lures Vic "Down Under" where he discovers 
 that there are some rather nefarious plans for him.  Sometimes criticized 
 as being misogynistic, it is important to remember that this is set in a 
 misogynistic society - from there, we leave it up to you to make your own 
 determinations.  This is, however, considered by fans and detractors alike 
 to have one of the best film endings ever and was a direct influence on 
 films such as "Mad Max" and "The Road Warrior."  Also with Jason 
 Robards.\n\nAnd a little trivia: Blood is actually one of the dogs who 
 played Tiger on the original The Brady Bunch TV series (there were a few 
 canine actors in the role of Tiger).\n\nOh, and this ain't necessarily one 
 for the kiddies.  \n
