tzal.org - contain multitudes - by Eduardo Pinheiro aka Padma Dorje

Two 1971 science-fiction films build horrific futures from the materials of the present: one overrun by the violent ids of a barbaric younger generation, and the other, one locked down tight enough to squeeze the humanity from its citizens. Both make cases for keeping the human spirit liberated, but they go about it differently, and with varying degrees of success. And both build their horrific futures from the materials of the present.

Chaos, oppression, and the grim worlds of A Clockwork Orange and THX-1138
