Virus / Fukkatsu no Hi / Japan / 1980
Part biological horror thriller, part post-apocalyptic love story, this absorbing entry from director Kinji Fukasaku offers up a chilling glimpse of life on Earth were a devastating virus to rip through the populace. Focusing the tale on 863 Antarctic-dwellers unaffected by the plague, Fukasaku orchestrates such mind-expanding scenarios as the future of sexual relations with only eight women to balance out 855 men, and the sudden irrelevance of nation states in a decimated world. Although these sociological ponderings eventually give way to an action-packed nuclear missile and earthquake catastrophe, the images constructed here, and the ideas propagated, are nevertheless most intriguing—and terrifying.
