The Apocalypse - The Quiet Earth
I went to bed at about 3:00am this morning and maybe that’s the reason. Normally I have dreams about flying here and there - usually very exciting and entertaining dreams. However, I was so exhausted that I think my dreamtime was a bit wonky. I dreamt of an apocalypse - not the 4 horsemen kind, but a visually cool but really terrifying kind.
It reminded me of the final sequence in the 1985 film The Quiet Earth where the lead character, Zac Hobson witnesses a spectacular celestial event. In my case, it seemed like a couple of suns going super nova as well as asteroid plummeting to Earth. Then immense sky-sized sheets of ice crashed down on us.
Me and my party survived.
I am going to figure out a way to draw it - it won’t be soon, but I will be doing it.
Check out the final sequence of The Quiet Earth.
