The Penis is Evil

Thanks to the wind blowing a gale out there, I've been up since 2.30 am. After reading for a while, I remembered that on some discussion forum I read, someone posted a YouTube clip of an interesting film trailer.

It was for a 1974 film called 'Zardoz' starring Sean Connery and it was quite frankly the weirdest trailer that I had ever seen... so I just had to watch the entire film.

So earlier this morning I downloaded and watched it via iTunes for $4 CND - money well spent, imo!

What a head trip! I can't really describe it.

Just watch the trailer:




As for a review? Ha! I'm still reeling from seeing Sean Connery run around in thigh-high come-fuck-me boots.




It was, at once, one of the worst and best film I've ever seen. If you like movies like that, I highly recommend it.

I can't think of anything else to say, so I'll let Zardoz speak:



"The gun is good. The penis is evil. The penis shoots seeds, and makes new life to poison the Earth with a plague of men, as once it was, but the gun shoots death, and purifies the Earth of the filth of brutals. Go forth . . . and kill!"

Ok, since Zardoz brought up the evil penis, I'll mention that there's another penis-related scene that's just hilarious:






It really is the weirdest film that I've seen in a long time. It's great!

(I have no idea what it was about though, lol!)

  1. I remember this film!!

    Mike Meyers, in his AFI tribute address to Sean Connery, made mention of the infamous 'nut sling' worn by Connery in this movie.

  2. That picture of Sean has quite put me off my lunch. I don't think I dare click on the film link or all good opinions about him might vanish completely!!

    PS - still sniggering at your title though.
