New Zealand director Geoff Murphy brings pulsing life to an end of the world scenario with only three survivors.
Zac Hobson wakes suddenly to find his watch stopped and the radio without transmission. Driving into town he sees no signs of life, and upon entering his lab he realizes his latest experiment may have wiped out the earth’s population. At first indulging in decadent behavior with the world’s resources there for his taking, he quickly slips from sanity in his loneliness, staggering around a stadium field in a woman’s slip. Soon he meets two other survivors – Joanne, who charms him immediately, and Api, who is at first intimidating but whose kind nature quickly comes through. An expected love triangle forms, but the three must act together to prevent another potential disaster from occurring. Subtle, playful and often lovely, The Quiet Earth stands apart from other post-apocalyptic movies.
