Directed by K. Lopushansky, probably the most faithful of all Tarkovsky's followers (who worked as assistant on the filming of ''Stalker''), this film is a heavy and realistic portrayal of the end of the world. Endless piles of rusty metal, interminable yellow twilight, dirty radioactive puddles of mixed water and blood. And dead bodies. Dead bodies everywhere. Men, children, women. Everywhere. There is no hope here. It’s finished. There is no ”if”. The doomsday clock has moved. We are just witnessing the final decay of small group of survivors that will last several months, probably. There is not even a single hint about their survival. It’s a death rattle. Just a matter of time. Music by Ital Tek (track Jenova from the album Hollowed): Full review and more deep sci-fi here:
