Sep 23, 2000 · After the death of his father, spy and Nobel Prize winning physicist Jerry Cornelius undertakes a mission to raid his family home, which has been taken over by his brother Frank, in order to rescue his sister Catherine and a microfilm that contains the Final Programme left by his father.
The Final Programme, released in the US as The Last Days of Man on Earth, is a defiantly strange film, a mixture of dystopian sci-fi, comedy, spy spoof, thriller and satire.
