Logan’s Run (1976)

Logan’s Run

Directed by Michael Anderson

1976 • PG • English • 118 min.

In this 1970s dystopian sci-fi flick, society is basically a utopia for the young. But when you turn 30, you have to turn yourself in for voluntary suicide. They call it “renewal,” but (spoiler) it’s just a big suicide party. The story here is slightly less dystopian than the book it’s based on, where the age cutoff is 21.

Cast: Michael York, Jenny Agutter, Richard Jordan
