Denzel & The Brothers Hughes Open Up Their Post Apocalyptic BOOK OF ELI!!


Merrick here...

Albert and Allen Hughes (MENACE II SOCIETY, FROM HELL, DEAD PRESIDENTS) ae going post apocalyptic in THE BOOK OF ELI - in which Denzel Washington makes his way through a doomsday wasteland protecting a book that might hold the answers to humanity's salvation.

USA TODAY has a gallery of images from the film, which you can accewss by following Denzel below.





Whenever I think of post-apocalyptic, I'm instantly catapulted back to 1977's DAMNATION ALLEY - the first survivors-in-a-wasteland movie I ever saw, and the only one that made me cry. Having seen it more recently, I'm not sure what the hell kinda wussyfication befell me in that given moment - but I do remember developing a phobia of giant mutant scorpions, really wanting a Landmaster, fearing I'd awaken one day to find the sky looked like the background of an second rate rock concert, and yearning to do something with Dominique Sanda (even though I was too young to know what actual "doing" was).
