A son and His Dog , a seldom - screened , trippy post - apocalyptic film establish on a novella by Harlan Ellison , will be show in Los Angeles as part of a double feature film with Christian documentary Waiting for Armageddon . Why the odd pairing ?
The 1974 A male child And His Dog stars Don Johnson as a teenager wandering in a ruin , post - World War III creation of 2024 , scavenge for food for thought and womanhood with his telepathic , genetically neuter dog . ( It was lead by L.Q. Jones . )
That ’ll be paired with the new docudrama , Waiting for Armageddon , which look at the anticipation of End Times by American Christians and Israeli Jews , at Los Angeles’Downtown Independenttheater . ( “ The Rapture pee-pee me have to pore , ” one woman interview in the moving picture says . “ Because I may meet my maker tomorrow . ” )

Paul Marchant , who book films for First Run Features , come up with the idea for the duple government note while speaking to the cinema ’s film booker , Ivan Pacheco .
Marchant told io9 :
I just say to Ivan , “ You know what might be tasteful . Waiting for Armageddon paired with A Boy and His Dog , a before and after looking at the Book of Revelation . ” The next day I lam it by David Heilbroner [ one of the directors of Waiting ] and he said something to the effect of “ What ’s living without humor ? ”

A midnight movie , then , from the closing of clock time . But will the Rapture of the faithful look like Ellison ’s dangerous vision ? Maybe fourth dimension will assure .
