Wissenswertes
During the shoot, in England's worst winter in decades, the cast and crew kept themselves amused by doing "Arnie" (Arnold Schwarzenegger) impressions. Apparently, DOP Adam Krajczynski was the best.

A Red Death in the White Silence

The main and the only character of this murky psychological drama is the last man on earth. He tries to imitate the normal life – he makes straw people and lives among them and he even teaches some straw children at school – he reads them books and punishes the bad pupils for their misbehaviour. But loneliness and silence are slowly driving him mad so any day may become a day of retribution. However the film begins with the epigraph by Edgar Allan Poe: "All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream" so it is impossible to tell if we are shown a post-apocalyptic landscapes or everything that happens is just happening in the head of a madman.
