Not much point commenting on how brutally prophetic this story is, I'll just say something about the irony of all the smug smarties sequestering themselves away in a concrete tomb while their dumbed down charges get to live in Utopia.
I didn't even know that there was an adaptation of this, what caught my attention was the appearance of some SCTV alums.
I believe this was done for one of the later revivals of 'The Twilight Zone' TV series.
I read the story rather than watch the video.
A quibble... or two.
a) If he's so smart, why didn't he know that there would be consequences?
2) Does this mean the law was correct?
This is one of the nastiest dystopies I have ever watched. Or do we already live in it?
