In a tour-de-force sci-fi story with only three main characters, Kiwi director Geoffrey Murphy creates an interesting dynamic nuanced with shades of mysticism. When scientist Zac Hobson (Bruno Lawrence) experiments with a radical new power source -- a band of energy that would circle the planet -- the project goes awry and apparently wipes out all living creatures (they vanish without a trace). At first Zac adjusts by indulging himself in some of his materialistic desires, but he soon starts a serious search for other signs of human life. He discovers it in New Zealand in the form of Joanne (Alison Routledge), with whom he falls in love, and Api (Peter Smith), a Maori. The challenges the three face in order to survive, as well as their personal interactions, keep this human drama engrossing. Eleanor Mannikka, Rovi

I do not understand the reason for the man being naked at the beginning of the movie. It made no sense to me. It was a good movie for the first 15 minutes or so....I expected it to be more like the book by George Stewart called Earth Abides....where man is gone, leaving one only....looking and searching for what happened, looking and searching for other survivors and learning to cope without electricity, watching the changes to the world as things broke down, and all manmade things are gone; man growing backwards in time...,,It was nothing like that,....I did not like this movie at all and would not recommend it...
