Mexico 2000

About This Movie

So, here's a quirky little gem from the early 80s, 'Mexico 2000.' It’s a curious mix of comedy and sci-fi with a flavor of fantasy. The premise is pretty wild—gods in Olympus decide to wipe out humanity, but there's a twist. One deity argues for sparing Mexico, which they've painted as this utopian paradise in the year 2000. The film plays with themes of fate and cultural identity, and there’s a certain charm in its low-budget practical effects. The pacing has a relaxed, almost meandering quality that gives it a unique vibe. Performances are a bit hit-or-miss, but they add to the film's overall offbeat atmosphere. It’s one of those you stumble upon and can’t quite forget.
