Viewing Notes
Possibly one of the best sci-fi films of the naughts, Jerome Bixby’s The Man from Earth (2007) is an entertaining lo-fi sci-fi film that might be the most provocative film per dollar spent (see AVATAR). Plot is simple: guy reveals to his university colleagues that he’s been alive for 14,000 years. Then the weirdness ensues. Definitely one to seek out.
