Linkshoch Wonderful Movie

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

bnwfilmbuff Made-for-TV apocalyptic film following a family that while vacationing in the California mountains their friend that is with them suddenly gets ill, dies, and turns to powder. The remainder of the film follows their struggle to get back home to Malibu where Jay W. MacIntosh, in the role of the mother/wife, has returned. Along the way father Peter Graves queries son Michael James-Wixted, a physics student, to try to determine what has exterminated most of the population and why they haven't been affected. Nothing too out-of the-ordinary happens in this. Kathleen Quinlan in the role of the daughter does some occasional narration which doesn't add much. One interesting aspect is that dogs have become particularly menacing. There is an obvious Biblical theme to this movie that never gets explored and might have made this a bit more interesting. Despite being cliché it's pretty well done for a made-for-TV.

StarKaraoke For a made for TV movie it had the ability to carry the theme-fear factor. Like most of the made for TV movies I expected it to rerun-but I never saw any times advertised later in TV Guide, THE weekly reference of programming. I just happened on it tonight searching Wikipedia and IMDb to see if I could find what the name of this movie that has haunted my memories for so many decades (1974 to 2011). This would be a great remake candidate with today's CGI effects. I especially recall the end. Wish SyFy would run this and a few more of the old movies like THE PEOPLE 1972. Such a cool premise-I still have hold over fears of a flash that takes out everyone-like NIGHT OF THE COMET 1984 and this movie Where Have All the People Gone. It's August 18th 2011 and I still think about it. I was 19 when the TV movies played October 1974. It would have made a great series from the pilot.

tss2820 Where Have All the People Gone is a great movie. The idea is great. It was executed great. I thought it was great how the father always looked on the bright side and protected his children from whatever foe they faced. It almost felt real except one problem. Did a deadly virus kill everyone except the people that were immune? If so what is the point of the solar flares? If the solar flares some how killed everyone how could the surviving characters be immune to the sun? Who knows? Did the solar flare cause the virus somehow? Who knows? Haha i don't care this movie hooked me in from the start. Its very entertaining watching the apocalypse unfold in such a way.

noone9999999999 I am amazed at the number of people who were disturbed by this movie at a young age. I am one of them, but I've always contributed the feeling of dread and despair this movie left me with to my tendency to worry about everything. I'm glad I'm not alone! I saw the movie at age 11 the first time and it stayed with me in a bad way for a very long time. I ran across the title channel surfing today and thought 'OMG, it's THAT movie!' So, of course I had to watch it. I was curious to see if it would have the same affect on me at 46. It truly does get to you, but I did not experience the fear of doom that I felt at 11! I would recommend it to older viewers, but not to the impressionable. I gave it a 10 for sheer impact. The director obviously did something right.
