In this sci-fi classic, scientist Zac Hobson (a powerhouse performance by Bruno Lawrence of Frontline) awakens to discover that he may be the last man on earth. Homes, highways and entire cities are deserted, every living thing has disappeared. He stands on a balcony and grandly addresses an "audience" of cardboard standups (from Queen Elizabeth to Bob Marley), declaring himself "president of this quiet earth." But Hobson then finds he is not alone. Joined by a beautiful young woman (Alison Routledge) and a Maori trucker (Pete Smith), the apocalypse suddenly becomes very personal as the survivors negotiate a perilous love triangle.
