IKARIE XB-1 AND LOGAN'S RUN
Ikarie XB-1 is
one of the most famous and well-regarded science fiction
films to come out of the Czech Republic directed by Jindřich PoláK. Due to its inventive visual
style and artistic approach Ikarie
XB-1 became an instant classic and
went on to gain a cult following. Show casing at the Trieste Science Fiction
Festival in 1963 it was an instant hit and
is now widely regarded as one of the best Eastern Bloc science
fiction films of an era.
Next up is LOGAN’S
RUN directed by Michael Anderson it focused more on the societal changes if
there where no longer humans in charge set in 2274, a utopia run by computers
that takes care of all aspects of human life, from reproduction to death. The
citizens live hedonistic lifestyles but understand that in order to maintain
the city; every resident when they reach the age of 30 it all must end.
