Brock Hughes-Zardoz

The movie Zardoz, to be honest, might be the worst movie I have ever seen. Honestly, how would someone like Sean Connery sign on to do that movie. I think that it must have been because of the Bond stage he was in and in Zardoz there was also a lot of women around him all the time. ONLY EXPLANATION.

However, the movie does show the idea of following an idea of something more than one’s self no matter how silly it is. The people of the Outlands follow Zardoz simply because he has told them that they are called or special people. This shows that people want to feel important to a being that is higher than themselves and fell that they are special. I think this really boils down to one’s insecurities that all humans possess. These insecurities lead to many different things but I think that this movie is a prime example of insecurities forcing one to a certain religion.
