Science fiction without the dazzle dazzle special effects...
“The Man From Earth” was written by Jerome Bixby, best known for his scripts for “Fantastic Voyage,” the original “Star Trek” TV show, and the “It’s a Good Life” episode of the original “Twilight Zone.”<br /><br />After Prof. John Oldman (David Lee Smith) resigns unexpectedly from the University, his colleagues impulsively invite themselves to his home to throw an impromptu goodbye party. Wondering why he has decided to leave so abruptly, they are told that he is an immortal who has migrated through 140 centuries of evolution. Oldman claims he cannot stay in one place for more than ten years without his secret being discovered. His fellow academics don’t believe the fantastic claim, and they are confronted with facing their own concepts of humanity, history, and religion.<br /><br />Though the premise falls into the science fiction genre, the movie lacks the razzle dazzle special effects usually associated with sci-fi. This is a more psychological film, in which dialogue and acting dominate. A dialogue-heavy motion picture, it holds the viewer much like a mystery. As with Oldman’s associates, we are eager to find out what the truth is. The mind-bending discussion topics among the professor’s peers cover artists Oldman has met from other centuries and how he survived the Black Plague. His revelations about religion lead his associates to wonder whether Oldman is insane.<br /><br />Each of Oldman’s uninvited guests reacts differently to his revelation, making for spirited dialogue as some are baffled, others offended by his claim, and still others angered. Because of the breadth of the professor’s disclosures, some believe he has gone mad. Bixby penned another treatment of this idea in the “Star Trek” episode “Requiem for Methuselah” (1969), but covers it in greater depth and with more thought provoking intensity in “The Man From Earth.”<br /><br />“The Man From Earth” plays more like a TV movie than a theatrical feature because of what was obviously a limited budget. Though the actors are effective, there are no major stars. The best-known cast members are  William Katt (“Carrie”) and Tony Todd (“Candyman”).<br /><br />Bonus materials on the 2-disc Blu-ray//DVD Combo Pack include theatrical teaser trailer and original theatrical trailer; 2 audio commentaries;  the short film “Contagion;” 4 behind-the-scenes featurettes; and a brand new feature-length documentary on the worldwide phenomenon of the film and its legacy.
