Synopsis
In a hermetically sealed, post-apocalyptic urban environment several centuries hence, Logan 5 (Michael York) and his friend Francis 7 (Richard Jordan) lead unquestioning lives of hedonism. Entertainment comes in the form of casual sexual liaisons and gladiatorial games in which those who do not wish to undergo euthanasia at the age of 30 vie for the illusory chance of continued life. As "sandmen," Logan and Francis are charged with tracking down and killing "runners" -- those citizens who will submit to neither "renewal" (a peaceful death) nor "carousel" (a gladiatorial battle) when their time comes. When Logan grows intrigued by a beautiful young woman, Jessica 6 (Jenny Agutter), who plans to become a runner, he is forced to question the fundamental principles of his society. And when his superiors force him to pose as a runner himself to weed out Jessica's guerilla underground, Logan finds himself fleeing the city in search of a mythical place called Sanctuary where people are allowed to live out their natural spans. ~ Brian J. Dillard, All Movie Guide

I'll always have a place in my heart for Logan's Run. (most of that room goes to Jenny Agutter and her sheer garments.) Growing up as a teen I was forced to watch Logan's Run at least twice a year on T.V.( Hey Saturday morning cartoons were over and Kung Fu theater was on sunday, What's a kid to do, go out and play?) It was nice to see this movie in it's entire format. In fact it has cemented my attraction to Jenny Agutter of 1976. ( I can't let my fiance find out!)
Over all, Logan's Run is one of my favorite pre-CGI Sci-fi movies. Awsome special effects. A must see for any sci-fi movie watchers.

Movies set in a bleak future where romance was a major part of the story.
