When everyone around him vanishes overnight, scientist Zac Hobson (Bruno Lawrence) finds himself seemingly the only person on the planet. The isolation initially drives him to the brink of suicide, but eventually Zac adapts to a day-to-day routine. After meeting two other survivors, Joanne (Alison Routledge) and Api (Peter Smith), the trio roam New Zealand trying to understand what caused everyone else to disappear, why they remain behind -- and whether disaster will strike again."It's refreshingly free of the Hollywood gloss which has bedevilled recent entries into the genre; it's gritty, almost matter-of-fact and rooted four-square in a believable and uncomfortable world brilliantly realised." - Starburst
"A cult classic of the good variety" - Filmcritic.com
COME EARLY! Doors 6:30pm, rare 35mm clips & trailers 7pm
