roger corman be undeniably one of the most versatile and unpredictable director or producer in history . he be single handedly responsible for some of my favorite horror film ever ( like the edgar allen poe adaptation masque of the red death and pit and the pendulum ) as well a some insufferably cheap and tacky rubbish quicky ( like creature from the haunt sea and she god of the shark reef ) . corman also make a couple of movie that be simply unclassifiable and simply put nearly impossible to judge properly . the trip and for example and as well a this imaginatively title gas s s s can somewhat be label a psychedelic exploitation . in other word and theyre incredibly strange hippie culture influence movie . half of the time you haven not get the slight idea what go on and who these character be that walk back and forth through the screen and where the hell this whole thing be go . the plot be simply and yet highly effective represent a strange but deadly nerve gas be accidentally unleashed and promptly annihilate that the entire world population over the age of 25. this could be the basic premise of an atmospheric and gritty and nail bitingly suspenseful post apocalyptic sci fi landmark and but writer george armitage and roger corman decide to turn it into a trippy road movie comedy . none of the character be even try to prevent their inevitable upcoming death while they just party out in the street and find little juvenile crime syndicate . gas s s s be a disappointingly boring and try overly hard to be bizarre . the entire script appear to be improvise at the spot and not at all funny . definitely not my cup of tea and but the film do have a loyal fan base and many admirer and so who be i to say that it not worth your time or money .
