Tomorrow's Harvest esque movies?

wash · Post by **wash** » Wed Jun 12, 2013 2:42 am

I know virtually nothing about sci-fi movies of the late 70's/early 80's, but want to get into them more after falling in love with this album. Any recommendations?

Blade Runner is a great place to start.

A few ideas ..

The Thing

Invasion of the Body Snatchers

Mad Max

Not strictly sci-fi, but I think appropriate.

The Andromeda Strain was released in 1971 but is still essential viewing and on theme I think.
